A beautiful, rebuilt 1957 Raleigh Lenton Gran Prix Bicycle. A racer for the ages (Reg Harris made it famous in the late 1950s as his racing steed), it is also a nice tourer and is set up that way now.

All parts cleaned and/or rebuilt. It is an amazing bike. Vintage Brooks saddle for crying out loud!!
Google John Lennon and Lenton-you’ll find a fun story about this very cool bicycle.

Lots of chrome, history, panache…
Also a Lucas lamp and generator set (attached).
And lots of extra parts, including drop handlebars and Weinmann brake levers.

Come see it. She is very pretty.
