Raleigh Single Speed

[keithholy]

It's a Montage - 88 or 89 (the 87 one had a U-brake).

It was the top of the 'normal' range, bikes above it came from the Lightweight Division.

You seem to know quite a lot about older Raleighs. I wonder if you have any information/downloads for my 1996 Raleigh Equator. I can't find any info anywhere and have never seen another!

Thanks in advance.....

Thanks, I looked at the Franks as well, but find them to heavy with 950 grams :shock: .
They look amazing though.
Bought some Geax Tattoo Light (2,3") weighing 560 gram.

i'll have to check those out. Yes the fat franks are way heavy but they were lighter than the maxxis hook worms i was thinking about. cheers
