Omschrijving

This Raleigh Zenith Lady was built from light Reynolds tubing in Nottingham in March 1984 and has a ‘W’ (Worksop) frame number. The Raleigh Bicycle Company, originally based in Nottingham, started manufacturing bicycles in 1887. Raleigh was always at the cutting edge of innovation. It is one of the oldest bicycle companies in the world. Despite their engagement in professional cycling, the sportive amateur bike remained the backbone of their line, and the Zenith was one of them. The elegant ladies racer was built using light Reynolds 501 tubing. Being a very versatile machine, it has some special features, not obvious at first glance: the chainset is an early ‘compact’ model, meaning that it uses rather small chainrings which allow pedaling at higher cadences as well as an easier conquest of climbs. With upright handlebars and easy to reach brakes, for the rider who prefers a more upright position, this vintage bicycle is both practical and fun to ride.
