Hi All, it does to me look like a respray/enamel as it took a fair bit of rubbing away on the dropout to get to metal. What would those tabs be for on the seat stays, could they be a primative panier system ? As far as I've undetstood from the previous owner now in his 90's is that his father...

Got in the garage before last orders. Pics below Chris

Not as yet, will have to get more tomorrow. Chris

I've recently been given what is marked up as an ALLIN but im not too sure. There isn't a frame number on the left chainstay, I think it's got Nervex lugs and it's got a revited Allin badge on the headtube. The only numbers i can find are on the BB shell and is 1812. Couple of pics below Any...

Re: What's the frame size and specs ?

Re: Hi, I'm assume it's now sold ? Chris

Re: Just taken a few pictures.... it's a 12 speed, I think a touring judging by the forks. But I haven't seen one with those black plastic cable clips on the top tube. chris

Will get more photos tomorrow, just had a quick look out in the garage for numbers by the top of the seat tube and I saw NK20-23737. So Nottingham July 1982 I think.... is there anyway of finding out what the 23737 means ?

Re: mmmmm now looking at it.... seems very neat could well be a 90's police stamp... will have to look over the bike for any other numbers... cheers

Hi, I've just picked up an old Raleigh racer I think from the early 80's. The very rough paint is in the team colours of red with black head tube but it has no decals to identify it by, when I got home I took a picture of the serial number on the bottom of the bottom bracket I think at most...

Benn menaing to do this for a few days, the Allin Bike has now been SOLD...

For Sale Believed to be built in 1981/82 just after Peter Cobb retired maybe by Ray Moore from the Allin shop at Whitehorse Road Croydon. Reynolds 531 tubing Campag headset, hubs, shifters, dropouts. Strongarm cranks Mifac Racing brake calipers. Cinelli quill and handlebar. Weinsmann brake...

having done some reasearch myself I believe when peter cobb retired, frames were still made at the shop but by ray moore, maybe he would of tried to copy peter cobbs wrap over stays but still badged them as Allin's? chris

Re: Hi, another thing I have just found I'd there's an ALLIN TOURING bike on eBay at the moment. It has exactly the same transfers as mine but different colour, one thing that may of worn away on mine is the 'standard' transfer on the seat tube. What would this sticker be in its entirety ? Item...

Just getting together a few parts cables etc etc just the tyres im unsure of.... rims measure 635mm ish does that sound right for an early eighties bike ? Chris
