Trying to get my first single speed/fixie mostly for commute.
Does anyone have any experience or advice about this Raleigh?
How much would you pay for it?
*maybe* 150-ish max, but only if it’s the right size, doesn’t weigh as much as a boat anchor, has wheels that are true, and doesn’t make awful creaking noises under load. It’s been left out in the rain based on rusty crank arm bolt & brake bolts, hard to tell in the photo but the chain ring looks to be missing a bunch of teeth.
It’s got bugger looking welds, rust in places, mismatched tires, basic parts. Personally I would maybe spend $50 max on something like that.

Bugger welds for sure! Came here just to say that. Is it really a Raleigh? Or badge stuck on a cheap frame?
