Classic 3 Speed Bikes

My Wife and I ride matching Raleigh Superbe 3 speed bikes.

Mine is a 1971 from England.
Hers is a 1974 made by Raleigh USA as manufacturing moved from England to the US around 1972.

Some unique features these bikes share is the generator front hub, fenders, front and rear lights and frame pumps(although I haven't found a replacement for her missing one yet).

The mens also has a rear spring rack.

These bikes ride superbe. They have a low bottom bracket and their forks have a very shallow steering angle making them feel very stable at high speeds. The rear end is fairly short and the seat angle steeper then the fork giving them some nimble handling.

Enjoy the pics.
