Good Afternoon

Some pics of my 1991 Raleigh Castorama Maxisports made of Reynolds753 tubing, in relatively good condition despite some paint chips, its equipment is full c record,except the original fork which was replaced due to a crash, a miche front derailleur and the wolber front frim replaced by a rigida dp18. I repainted some of the paint chips with white nail polish.Original saddle was a Turbomatic 2 which was dead and which I changed by an Italia Century manganese in white color

Change out the front mech as that’s not C Record & better get another white turbo saddle installed… good clean & it’ll be a very nice steed.

I have already bought a c record front derailleur, so it will be changed, as for the saddle I will keep the century, I like it more than the Turbo
