Raleigh Record Sprint - 1983 mk1

[Tony Raynor]

Just finished off sorting this one out. Needs a couple more polishes to really make it shine.

Nice one Tony

Mine's a MK2 or 3 so has less gold bling than yours.

I'm waiting for some new wheels for mine to make it more user friendly, (it's going to be 8 or 9 speed, not decided yet).

I would have liked to leave it original, but as I found things wrong it became impractical to do so if I was ever going to use it rather than look at it.

Here's mine. Still got the original wheels and mechs on in this pic though.
