Thanks, I'm looking forward to getting it on the road. That Corsair is a nice looking bike.
I'm riding a Raleigh Equipe at the moment. 18-23 steel, cheapo Sachs derailleurs, steel wheels etc. I got it for £35 as I wanted a bike that I could leave at the station without worrying about it being stolen, and I wanted something more interesting than an ali hybrid.
Considering it's a near bottom of the range bike from 1986 or so, it's in great condition and everything works as it should. It just needed cleaning, greasing and new cables. The weight though! It's about 20% heavier than the Carlton, despite being a smaller frame.
