I was wondering if anyone could give me any info or opinions on the bike. I don't really care about its value as I wouldn't want to sell it, but I'd be interested if anyone knows more about it. I didn't even know Raleigh had a Black Ops (sorry, I mean Special Products) department.
As to spec, well I did warn you that I'm not an expert...
It has a Titanium frame which has the decals Quantum, Dyna-Tech and Titanium on it. There are 2 plaques (see pics for close ups) one saying it is a Raleigh Special Products Division bike, the other says it has a 2125 Performance Enhanced Tube set (what does this mean :?: ). It has 2 wheels which both go round
. The front forks are Rock Shox Magnesium. It has cantilever brakes and the levers say Shimano. The gears are Shimano Index System. The handlebars seem too heavy to be any fancy alloy.
I am loving this bike, I've done 80k on it this week so far and am having a great time on the trails, disused railway lines and roads around me. It would be fascinating to learn more about the bike or recommendations for improving it from people in the know. Hope you enjoy the pics (I have more but I'm limited to 2mb upload limit, probably cos I'm a noob).
I can't wait to hear from you all!
