I am selling my 2002 17" Raleigh C40 hybrid bicycle. It is in excellent condition and has always been kept indoors. I replaced it last year with a lighter bike, but had it tuned up at the Trek store prior to that. The Raleigh is sturdy; it does well on trails and is good for using with childseats or pulling trailers. Bike rack included as shown. Asking $100. Caroline
