    New winter hack - Raleigh Banana

    Just got myself a bargain on eBay, an old banana with lots of new bits. I have given it a good going over, fitted a new set of mudguards and even managed to bodge an old carrier for the commute to work. The carrier didn't have the right brackets, so I popped into Halfords and found some...

    Team Banana front forks

    All, I am looking for a replacement set of front forks for my newly acquired Raleigh Banana. The previous owner replace the damaged forks with a pair from another bike and the brakes can't quite reach now! Paint condition unimportant as I will respray them anyway. Thanks in advance...

    Shocking braking in the rain!

    I am running my 1986 Raleigh with the original chromed wheels and brakes. The moment they get wet, my braking is reduced by about 90%, meaning that emergency stops are out of the question. I have to slow down for junctions 1/2 a mile away, and consider using a foot on the ground as well! Any...

    Raleigh brake part needed

    Hi All, I am looking for the rubber/plastic part pictured for my 1980's Raleigh brakes. I can't seem to find anything on Google, all I can see is a complete set of brakes. Any ideas where I can find a few of these for good money? Thanks!

    Is it just me, or is this bike really sexy?

    Everything does it for me, the simplicity, colours, excellent condition. Nice. Gunter.

    Raleigh Equipe rebuild

    I recently bought myself a Raleigh Equipe to restore. I spend most of my time on a MTB, so I thought it would make a nice change to go over to a road bike. Here she is when I bought her: I need a few parts, maybe someone can suggest where I can find them? A Raleigh badge, seat post nut and...

    Newbie with a question

    Hi All from Tadley, North Hants, I have just joined after purchasing myself a Raleigh Equipe. I only got it a week ago, but it has already been stripped down ready for its respray and tart up. I am really looking forward to getting it back on the road again...maybe with slightly different...
