Retrobike BoTM Feb 14 'Special Edition' Special **VOTE**

[stumpjumper1990]

Orange or Raleigh...... ?!?!

 

[highlandsflyer]

That was my dilemma, so I voted for the one that jumps off the page at me. The Orange it is, but I would love to own both.

 

[ADH]

That Orange is just, right..
The clean lines of the Fat 10th runs a very close second though.

 

[je me souviens]

Omega for me, souvenirs! :mrgreen:

The Orange lost out on the saddle choice so it's the Fat for me - proper stealth looking - very cool.

Tyres and Seat not to my taste on the Elite but they're such under rated bikes it still gets my vote.

FYI, it did have a flite at one point, but my bum didn't agree with it anymore hence the change to a design i get on with, it gets ridden so it has to be comfortable.

really appreciate the good comments though, to be honest i put it in the comp purely because it fitted the criteria of limited edition, i didn't expect people to like it that much, just been out on it for 22 miles

same with the tyres, if you look in the nomination thread you'll see original panaracer duster(?) tyres on the muddy pic, they wore out so i put the conti's on as i think they have a retro look to them.

Raleigh for me without doubt, sheer class, stands head and shoulders above any other bike I have ever seen! Awesome, what a brand back in the day.

Gotta be John's Gold Orange It just leaps off the screen at you.
