Bicycle Type: Lightweight
SERIAL NUMBER: R63874 INDICATES BETWEEN 1933 AND 34 ON THE MENOTOMY SERIAL NUMBER PAGE. THE 3-SPEED HUB IS STAMPED K.7 WHICH I IMAGINE INDICATES 1937. IT HAS A RALEIGH HEAD BADGE (BRASS) AND RALEIGH COMPONENTS SUCH AS FORKS, CRANKS, CHAIN GUARD, AND ALUMINUM KICKSTAND. IT HAS 28 X 1 1/2 INCH STAINLESS STEEL DUNLOP RIMS. I FOUND THE BICYCLE DURING SPARGUT IN BASEL/SWITZERLAND. SWISS AIR HAD A GREAT DEAL ON INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS IN THE EARLY 1990S WHERE BICYCLES WERE FREE WITH A TICKET. THE TIRES ARE FROM MEXICO CITY. I MADE THE PHOTOGRAPH IN FRONT OF A 1925 RECITAL HALL I REMODELED IN TEMPE. ANDY . WEED@ GMAIL. COM
