Yeah, just like that!👍

Jumping on this thread a bit late, but it popped up while I was searching out frame bags as I’m currently looking for one. I do recall that MT Zefal did a few neon corner frame bags in the early 90’s, pink, yellow and orange were the colours I think?

Yeah, nicest thing about them was the paint job, but personally I really liked the look of them. The lizards were factory fitted with two brake variants, apparently depending on what Raleigh had to hand at the time. Silver ‘Lee Chi’ brakes or black Shimano ones (which are shown on the brochure...

Thanks, that’s useful info, I did wonder if 92 was a build year? They certainly were common bikes in the early 90’s.

Could anyone confirm what years the Raleigh Lizard was in production? As far as I can see it was only advertised in the 1991 brochure? I believe they may have only been built from spring 1990 and continued through into 1991? Also, any other useful information would be greatly appreciated.👍...

Other side is posted, plus there are some more pics on the link to my other post about my bike.👍

My parents went all out to buy me one, so it certainly wasn’t cheap for them. This one rides really nicely too, heavy yes, but I love it! It was the bike I wanted above any other. It certainly doesn’t have the cult status of the Chopper or Burner, but for a short time in the early 90s it was...

either that or I’ll struggle to pedal the extra weight up a hill!😂

No batts in them at the moment.😉😂

My teenage love!😂 I had one of these as a 14 year old & absolutely loved it. I had it circled in my Mum’s catalogue, and it was also top of my Christmas List! That bike came and went, like they do, and five years ago I had the opportunity to purchase this one to relive those days and memories...

Hi, New to the forum, so bare with me if I’ve missed anything here… Just wondering if you still have the neon MT Zefal pump available please? I’ve been searching for one of these for months. I don’t know how to PM you? Many thanks.👍

Hi, Very new to the forum, but obviously very late on this thread…. It’s worth an ask… are any of these pumps still available please? I’ve been on the hunt for many months searching for one of the early 90’s Aluminium MT Zefal neon pumps. Many thanks.👍

Many thanks.👍
