Raleigh Tandem,Model "SC Tandem"

This advert is located in and around Rothwell, Northamptonshire

Advert Description

Have had this tandem some years.
Bought to ensure my grandson could cycle in reasonable safety.
Hasn't been used since Covid Lockdown.
Was a US model, brought in from Florida, IIRC by the guy who sold it to me.
Mountain style, robust, steel framed, not a lightweight. Just so you're forewarned if you intend carrying it on a roof rack...

Will post pictures later... There is some paint damage.
Will make a good starter tandem for someone.
I swapped the brake cables around (Yanks like a left hand front brake operation) I cannot see why... 27 Shimano gears, rat trap pedals with conventional toeclips.
(no fancy stuff)

Having a clear out, need space. Can demo with potential purchaser as "stoker" at purchaser's risk... I'm a bit rusty myself, but I have ridden tandems since 1977...
Now, I found reviews of this model by Googling "Raleigh SC Tandem Review"
I advise potential purchasers to read them before asking me any questions.
Best I can say is, as stated before, it's a good starter tandem upon which you can establish whether or not you're suited to tandem riding... A few spills won't reduce its value too much...

I'm 5'10" (1.68 m ) tall, suits me as pilot.
Grandson rode it when he was a lot shorter than I am, could still ride it.

I am not selling by way of business... I'm retired, and not from cycle sales...
