    1980 Raleigh Record

    Not long at all really. It was in pretty good nick, just needed a couple of light coats of black to get rid of the 30 yrs of scratches. The nice Gold brakes are the second set I have, bought off ebay. The other set are a lighter Anodised colour, but I prefer the Golder looking ones. The rest is...

    Introduce myself

    I mean it looks in good nick. I suppose if it were me then £100 for a road bike is pretty cheap. It is at the end of the day 30 yrs old. And it will become rarer. Put it this way as i had one when i was a kid, I won't get rid of mine, for any cash. I do 200+ miles a week between all my bikes...

    Joyden's Wood Bexley

    This is one of my favs off road rides. http://ridewithgps.com/routes/1088438 section 10-14 is done on a byway, but for some reason the software won't let me map onto that. This is done at night, saves hitting walkers and I would say 75% of it is off road. The pilgrims way first section...

    Joyden's Wood Bexley

    I used to live near there, but never rode the wood, I then moved down to Eynsford and there are some mega rides down there. South Darenth path. About 7 miles of on and off road along the river Darenth. And then onto the pilgrims way for a mental run at the bottom of Vigo village. At night, with...

    Introduce myself

    I stand corrected, been having another quick look around and I can't say for sure that there was a 1980's Raleigh record sprint with 531 tubes...... I know there were some 1970's bike's with it but not sure about 1980's. So it might have to be the 501 frame anyway... :shock: si

    Introduce myself

    Just had a close look at the picture, and it looks pretty good. Depending if there is any rust anywhere. Bt it has the GOLD brakes/Levers/Later Crankset. It has the 501 tubes, so looks pretty good. Not sure about the weels, can't see them, but why has the guy not put matching tyres on the...

    Introduce myself

    Depends what you want it for. For me I used to have one 30 yrs ago when i was a kid and wanted another one. It only will come out on dry days, but I love it. The Bianchi is a dream bike, but for a Retro bike you can't beat a Raleigh. I love the black and gold scheme to it. It has a great...
