Re: It is!

Really sorry but no PM received from you. Would you like to try again or email milesgoff@tiscali.co.uk

FOR SALE: 1986 Raleigh Road Ace One for the the aficianados? Here we have a 1986 totally original, unmolested, unadulterated, low mileage 23" Reynolds 531c Raleigh Road Ace. I had one BITD and regretted selling it in the late '90s to help fund our first tandem. I bought this off the first...

Re: You have a PM

Re: Yeah I bought the eBay Polish laser cut ones. They're ace and fit perfectly.

Re: Dean you have PM. Ta.

Re: Ta. I have the friction version already which are in VGC. Am looking to 'update'to SIS. Is breakage common on the 6 speed SIS levers? I seem to keep reading about it.

Re: Moi aussi :-)

Re: Quick bumpette as I'm still looking for a pair of 6 speed Shimano SIS braze on, down tube levers please.

Shimano 600 SIS 6 Speed Levers So looks like I've struck gold on the derailleur front (thank you reynoldsfan). Still on the look out for a pair of 6 speed braze on SIS levers please. VGC or NOS would be ideal :-)

One for the owners of the mid eighties Raleigh Road Ace... I'm going to get some Polar Blue (looks like pearlescent white) and Blaze Blue (the solid mid blue) paint mixed by the local paint specialist using their fancy scanning machine. The colours will be as close as possible for something...

Looking for a rear derailleur and downtube levers in good nick for a loverly old retro build. BNIB/moon on a stick would be ace. :-)

Re: I'll measure mine again but IIRC, it's centre BB to centre to centre top tube. If you're looking for a build kit, I still have a pair of Arai RM20's and a full Deore Dx groupset still available from mine.

Re: Sorry. Edited and a couple of pics added. More pics available on request.

I have a Shimano Deore DX Groupset potentially for sale: 170mm Biopace Crankset 28/38/48 7 speed cassette 12/28 7 speed chain Front/rear derailleurs Thumbshifters Front/rear brake levers and cantis Pedals Misc cables Araya RM20's c/w dx hubs and q/r's These all came off a 1989 18" Marin Pine...
