    Raleigh Avanti 531

    yes that's right, but its only a 501 on the Ozark, the avanti had a 531 3 piece affair, I'm sure the maveric had the same fork. I did have a 501 on my thunder road as well. I don't know if it was me though. the thunder road, felt heavier than my 1985 maverick 15, maybe just the balance. how...

    Hiya :) ah yes, the purple are extra rare, same guy built it though, I'd recognise that cheeky little smile any where :) lol.
