Here's my entry for this month, I thought I'd show a bit of love for the great ole British Raleigh.

This came into my possession after winning the frame and forks in a great Karma Competition on this forum (Thanks to racin'snake) where hopefully I've done it some justice with this sympathetic yet tasteful build.

Hard to believe that before it was won by myself it was once deemed an Insurance write-off before being spotted on gumtree snapped up and used as a Pub Bike & Hack.(Thankfully the only damage was to the parts fitted to the bike and not the Frame or Forks)

Now rebuilt with Shimano DX Groupset, Suntour/Mavic Wheels, WTB Tyres, and Tioga Headset & Stem and a few personal choice parts this has turned into a very nice lightweight bike which eats up the flatland trails of Norfolk, enjoy.
