Guy’s Raleigh Record

Posted

We’re finishing this week with Guy’s 70sish Raleigh Record.  Is it me or have we seen a lot of garage door backgrounds lately?

More or less my pride and joy at the moment.

A 1972 (i think…) Irish-built Raleigh Record. currently something of a project bike, was all original parts until the front hub cracked and i decided i needed to do something about it. inherited it from my father, who’d had the machine since his twentieth birthday. all I’ve done to it at present is replace the saddle, bar tape, and front wheel (the original schrader rims were a bit heavy anyway).

Currently working on replacing the rear wheel (upgrading to alloy) and refurbishing the bottom bracket.

Thanks Guy
