Intriguing '50's lugless number. I would have thought it was a CB but for the seat cluster and pump peg. £15 quid start, 22hrs to go and pick up from Cambridge:

This a lovely looking little '70's LeJuene with a classic Stronglight 49D crankset and beautiful chrome fork-ends:

I spotted this Raleigh Pioneer yesterday. If it's the sort of thing you want and you can get it uncontested it looks a really good bet:

The stated 20.5" frame size looks a little underestimated judging from the length of the head tube, but I could be wrong.
I have one of these - a rather beaten-up 57cm example which I've converted into a conventional-looking light tourer.

I've got a 1995 model, but mine is a lugged & brazed 501 frame in an understated deep red/purple finish. It's my favourite bike by a large margin. I think that frame is probably a 21", mine is a 23" and has a taller head tube than the one on eBay. Unfortunately, Pioneers seemed much more popular with the ladies as their frames seem to outnumber the gents versions by a factor of two or three to one. Often, a perfectly usable ladies Pioneer will struggle to make £20!

I leave all this kind of thing to my most beloved eBay Queen.


When really interested in something she will have as many as 3 of our lap-tops all sitting there in front of her keeping up to date with how things are going and then, normally 5 to 10 seconds before the end she will strike, her success rate is quite astonishing!

I just use Gixen

Not seen this so far; a vintage 531-framed Reg Tedstill currently at £47: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-...cle-Original-seat-pump-and-parts/253392296132

Wonder who they are? So did I. But CC as usual produces the goods: https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/reg-tedstill-anyone.200141/

[buzzy-beans]

As it obviously needs quite a lot of work doing to it, isn't the fixed asking price a bit steep?
