bored of it now, you need to find something else to keep up the momentum

I notice a high awesomeness quotient on above bike.

Been for a quick loop on the Avanti today after a quick clean and removal brown waxy grease stuff. Feels good although a little short TBH. Im not sure how long the anodising on the rims will last

£100 well spent I'd say. One of those bikes that is such a timewarp that it need sot only come out on nice summer days.

Little bit short you say? Shame that, luckily you're a bit taller than me so I'll just have to take it off your hands

you're a bit taller than me

Thats something not often said to me You must be a little short in that case and I will get a slightly longer stem in the mean time

Great find!

Why did the owner upgrade the wheels if they never rode it?

Hi Terry,

Not sure why the rims are non original spec, I recall Raleigh changed spec sometimes on certain models. Would they be period ?
