Raleigh - All Models

Company History

Raleigh is synonymous with British bicycles, but its postwar mopeds and light motorcycles carried millions to work and school. Built with the company’s manufacturing discipline, the small-capacity two-wheelers featured dependable engines (often sourced), practical chain guards, and geometry born from decades of bicycle ergonomics. Dealer networks and parts supply were unrivaled, making ownership straightforward even in small towns. As car access grew and motorcycle specialization increased, Raleigh exited the motorized segment, but its machines remain fixtures in vintage circles for their practicality and tidy proportions. Historically, Raleigh’s motorized chapter is about industrial competence applied to basic mobility: unpretentious hardware that simply worked and taught a generation basic machine care.
