    Raleigh special division alu project?

    Chap wants £100, he wouldn't take anything less. I'm guessing it is a bit of a bargain. Advert is here: http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/mount ... /102737506 Turns out he lives about 10 minutes from me...

    Raleigh special division alu project?

    Evening all, I went and had a look at the bike tonight. It is indeed a Raleigh 200 exactly as shown here: http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=160066 and the same frame and forks as in the review above. It is a smallish frame, chap said 17.5, I'm 5ft 9 and it felt smaller than my...

    That looks like the puppy. No guarentees, but if I could get hold of it would you want it as a retro project to add to your Raleigh collection? Pm me if you are interested and we can discuss posting it. Cheers Rae

    X-Lite Raleigh Ti Project Bike

    A quick update for folks: Wheels are now ordered. I've opted for Hope hoops Pro3 SP-XC6 lightweight wheels, in black with the Crest rims. XTR or Crossmax was on the cards, but I loved the Hopes. UST Rocket Rons on order too, which should help with the weight. Brakes are on order , I decided...

    Raleigh special division alu project?

    Hi all I've come across a Raleigh special division blue alu framed bike. Complete with suspenson forks, SRAM x7 parts and grip shifts. Not too sure of the age, I'm guessing mid 90s? I already have a Raleigh/x-lite ti so is it worth buying this alu bike as a retro project? Has anyone else...

    eXotic Carbon Post - logo removal

    Hi If you are after a decent quality carbon post they don't come much better value than the Carboncycles eXotic. I wanted a good carbon post, but the big red logo on the side of the eXotic post didn’t do it for me. Other than that though it was perfect - ti bolts and a good shape for clamping...

    Crank bros headsets, any good?

    Yep, I bought one from CRC and it is very good quality. Impressed with the satin finish and it is silky smooth turning. Can't advise on durability or longevity, but it looks pretty well made with an o-ring seal on the bottom to keep the crud out. The version I opted for is nice and light too...
