    Looks like the better tubing with the brazed fittings and dropouts rather than the usual welded water pipe Raleigh's. You would have to be about 6'6" + to ride that frame as it must be about 24"

    shoe and helmet advice needed.

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Nothing sorted yet but I went into planet X today, but they only had the shimano and sidi shoes and no 5:10's. Found the shimano a bit too sporty and stiff for what I am looking for. I wear Sidi rain motorbike boots so I know how good a brand they are, but I...
