A retrobike for the wee man

[rosstheboss]

This evening, after we'd had dinner, my wife showed me her tablet and asked me what I thought of a bike she had seen for our 3yo on Ebay. She said she liked the colour and the fact it had a box on the back. I saw it and was amazed as this was my very first bike! I remember loving this bike and now I've found exactly the same one for my little boy! I wonder if he'll be riding a 16yo Stumpy in 30 years time?!?

Here's the bike for you, a Raleigh Sparky

Re:

Cool, I hate to say it but they don't make em like they used to (not for a reasonable price anyway !).

Not quite as old as yours but I just did this one up for a friends 7 y/o.
£3 off ebay, new cables, tubes, A LOT of cleaning and surface rust removal and voila !

Maybe we should start a Retro-Kids section
