These 3-speed Raleigh roadsters are the predecessors to the Dutch bicycle. They are sportier, lighter, and more agile with a different posture and geometry. They have the quintessential white "cotton tail" on the rear fender, dynamo-powered front and rear lights, rod brakes, and even an old vertical bell! Christi was laughing at me describing these bicycles. Both have cute handlebar and saddle bags that are attached to the bottoms of the leather saddles. How very dapper!

Check out their awesome Brooks leather saddles with vintage support coils! From the looks of it and from the lack of rust, either they are kept very pristine or they're new parts. In any case, wow attention to detail and care!

The dynamo is attached to the rear wheel

The beautiful Raleigh emblem on the rear fenders with engravings on the rear rack. Gorgeous gorgeous bicycles!
