Hi, I just put this bike up on Raleigh Craigslist, as I would like to sell it locally:

This is a nice rider, it is too big for me however. I can take more pics if needed, also I have a link to the 1986 Nishiki catalog description of the team issue. Thanks! jp

If you dont get any action and decide to negotiate the price some, Id be interested. Drop me a PM.

If that was a 62 cm bike, I would be all over it. I've owned two Nishiki's, both purchased new, and was delighted with both. A '72 "International", which was more of a classic road or randonneuring type bike and, a '74 "Competition" which had quicker geometry - though not overboard like some of today's modern racer bikes. I regret selling both of them.

This bike looks to be in excellent condition. Wish it were bigger.

Deal fell through...so it's up for sale again. I noticed an "issue" with the rear rim, it has a small bump. So, while it is ridable as is, new rims / wheel rebuild would be best for the bike (hubs are great). $320 neg.
pm for pics...

last bump...I replaced the rear wheel with an araya rim / shimano 600 hub, and NEW in box Dura ace 6 speed freewheel cassette, and new chain. Wheel is true, spins smooth. Old rear w/ Dura ace hub is included for future build.
