    Dawes Milk Race Scrub Up

    I thought I would start a thread to semi-document my first foray with a older bike. I have built bikes before, but only modern ones with carefully matched and researched components.

    Dawes Galaxy :D

    This week I was the very lucky recipient of a lovely old Dawes Galaxy! The owners are moving house, have just bought another pair of touring bikes (and even before this it was their back-up - I think they had a pair of Thorns as their go-to bikes), and they don't have the space to keep it or the...

It has a 531 frame and chromed forks. It is still more or less in original condition. Can anyone shed a little...

    Dawes Milk Race bike

    Noticed this on campus today. I recall these and at the time I had a Raleigh Banana bike. Reynolds 500 so nothing special but nice all the same. Nice to see old bikes in use.

    Powder coat or paint myself? Dawes Kingpin.

    I was pretty well set on getting the frame and forks powder-coated until I read a word of warning on a bike forum that while powder-coating is cheap, because a primer is not required when the paint gets chipped, there is no layer of protection to prevent rust from rapidly spreading beneath the...

    1989 Dawes Impulse, 60cm 531 frame and forks, £120, West Yorks

    My bike clearout continues - this is the last of the ones I've had stored at work. Why am I selling my Dawes Impulse? Simple: this was described as a 21" frame, which it clearly isn't. Not being a leggy giant it's no use me trying to ride it - I did and it wasn't a pretty sight. Therefore I'd...
