The 2nd one is nice with plastic tray, I wouldn’t have the 1st one if they made me.

Here's a modern take on the classic Raleigh Twenty

https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/velo-marche-shopper-bike-rbk-2673/1484718669

I have one of these in my collection back in the UK. It's pretty much the same design as the R20, but with V-brakes and 'normal' threads on the BB and headset. Has a 3-speed SA hub, and a twist shifter, which works just fine. This one looks in better overall condition, and makes an ideal bike to lock up in town, getting no attention from thieves. Mine has proved a worthy workhorse these past few years.

Blimey, I should've been a salesman

@biggs682 - it's a bit big for me but looks nice enough. I've met the seller before.

Want more than one Raleigh 20" wheel in a bad state? How about 4: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204946675477

@Nibor - beautifully designed, but am I OK to suggest it's a bit gaudy.

"With its stunning design and top-of-the-line features, it is sure to impress any cycling enthusiast."

I would say that would be suitable for around 5 ft 8 and up to around 6ft ISH

The guy says it is a 23 inch I am 6 foot

Got to be worth a try, might have to lift the saddle.
