    Raleigh Fork Crown

    Falcon - shane sutton Special

    Re: Hi all, quick update. Nearly there with the Ladies bike for 'Er Indoors'! Changed the colour scheme as the Salmon pink powder coat didn't look quite right so went for white with contrasting transfers. Just need inner tubes and cables cutting. Pleased with the overall result. Cheers Mark
