Hi all,
I have recently aquired a Raleigh c1986 in Team Panasonic colours. It is entry level 18-23 Hi-ten. But it does have Oval profile down and seat tubes.
And this has got me wondering. I know aero profiling is now the norm on a lot of bikes, but was there much about pre '86, and further BITD? I guess there were seatposts, concealed cabling, and some very dodgy head gear :roll: . Anything else?
So i would very interested to see any examples members have, along with dates, and any remanisances you might have about riding with aero profile bikes, parts, or kit.
TTFN,
Dave
