Raleigh R10 (Red) by brighter image
Specification:
- Raleigh double 'R' gusset frame (red)
- Rampar 400X forks (red)
- Mongoose stem (gold)
- Vinyl padded seat (black)
- MX grips (black)
"This is a weird R10! Notice how it has a double 'R' gusset ike an R11
- It's not a looptail and doesn't have the coaster brake mount like a regular
R10, but it does have the R10 style brazed on seat post clamp! This bike
looks more like an R11XL than an R10 - it has the brazed on cable hangers, but
the R11XL has a 7/8" post and this one has a 15/16"???
This is the only one like this that I've ever seen - the only other bike I've
seen like this was a NOS Raleigh R10 that I bought new in the box, but this bike
has a Rampar ''R' badge (like all American Rampars), whereas the Raleigh has a
heron badge.
The paint is factory finish but I have never seen this colour before; it came
with a Mongoose gold stem, some guy from Mass sold it to me for USD 80.00.
One of a kind? I doubt it, but I've never seen another - not even on eBay..."
