Anyone on here got an old Raleigh Peak or Summit?

Raleigh Peak from 1993/1994
Necessity dictates that this must be road going again soon, first time in nearly 16 years me thinks. New rear derailleur, new pedals, 5 new spokes and various cables. I narrowly lost out on a direct replacement rear derailleur so unfortunately cannot stay faithful to original parts. Most things however will remain. Budget for rebuild will be around £60. This is how it currently looks.

Will do.
Currently waiting on crank removal tool so i can get the crank arms off then il whip out the BB. It has a fair amount of play in it so it needs to be replaced but i don't know exactly what one i need.
Going to change the tyres to something more road biased, also the handlebars need to be changed for something with more than a little rise as the original ones swoop down and would surely kill my back! I think from memory it is a 17" frame. OK when i was 13, but not now
It was an insurance replacement for my Ravine that was nicked, and that was a replacement for my best Christmas present ever... A muddy fox pathfinder... that was nicked too.

My best mate and riding buddy had the salmon pink (he insisted orange ) Peak, it may even still be in his parents' garage, I'll ask! Think that frame was a replacement too, came apart at the seatstays if memory serves...
I had the turquoisey Peak of the previous year
