    Raleigh Record Sprint - Teenage kicks

    On my year the bar tape was this crappy pretend suede stuff that all the flock came off as soon as it rained. I've gone for padded vinyl black stuff, looks very period.

    Raleigh Record Sprint - Teenage kicks

    The rims were all black, until you used the blocks AT ALL after which they gradually became bloody awful. If rebuilding I'd refinish the braking surfaces in silver. I think that's what I did with mine, but can't remember :D ETA yes, I refinished mine.

    Great big Singlespeed thread!

    I've pretty much finished my world's cheapest scrap salvage build. It's an old Townsend Shaniko. I set myself the brief I couldn't buy anything over a tenner for it and wherever possible I had to recycle original parts of the bike or use stuff I already had stashed. Apologies for blurry pic...

    1970s(?)ish Falcon city/road bike - Beginner restoration

    Re: I get a 404 too. I'm getting a single speed/fixie vibe about this frame, might not be best solution for OP but the bike sounds like a good candidate for it.

    Had it forever, had broken it down into bits and put under my workbench at the back of the shed years ago. Had a bit of time free recently so dug it out and breathed life back into it. Plan was to just bolt it together and roll about on it, but you know how it goes... It's flat gloss grey with...

    Anyone heard of a Hooger Booger?

    Re: I have a saddle for one of these. Looks like a Rolls San ?Marco at the back (riveted brass type plate across it) and Hooger Booger in white decals on the nose on either side. Looks like it was made under licence either by or to resemble the Rolls saddle.
