1907 Raleigh Superbe X Frame

1907 Raleigh Superbe X Frame

26″ Frame

28″ Wheels

Frame No 180541

(Now sold)

This early X Frame was restored in 1999 using later wheels and saddle. 1908 was the year Raleigh introduced extensions on their front mudguards. Although it’s a heavy machine, it rides well.

 

Observe that the Superbe illustrated in the 1908 magazine (above) has a front mudguard extension, while the model shown in the 1907 catalogue picture below still has the cut-off front mudguard. 1908 was Raleigh’s changeover year for mudguard extensions.
