Sheldon Brown, the man who made the Raleigh Twenty cool, and he wasn’t even from the U.K.
Real men ride 20s.....Ahem... point of order, what makes you think a Raleigh twenty is a " ladies " bike
Yes, but be warned that doesn't last, my Pioneer was quite lively when I bought it new some 25 years ago but now it has lost much of its oomph., yet the Pioneer feels more lively and encourages a more spirited riding style .
Bike or rider?Yes, but be warned that doesn't last, my Pioneer was quite lively when I bought it new some 25 years ago but now it has lost much of its oomph.
Shhhhh you could be on to something there.Bike or rider?
More like constructive criticism than being snotty and patronising from @gavroche I would say.Effing grammar police along to castigate a new member. Brilliant. What give you the right to be so snotty and patronising? FFS
to the forum!hi all first post so bear with me do we as cyclist (people) try to pigeon hole everything ive got a few bike always room for more (as long as we don't tell the wife lol)and I buy mine on what it is rather then who made it and ive got a pashley clubman 3 speed fixed hub that ive been riding a lot lately now when I bought it (30% off) I bought it for the fixed sturmey and the looks don't we all but all I keep reading is that its for hipsters and not very well thought out now I think its a great bike and ive had a few (bikes that is) I no there marketed at people who are not likely to do more then the odd loop of hide park but its really well made I quite like the hub brake and it always puts a smile on my face so if it was made by a different firm would people look at it differently I wonder anyway would love to hear your thoughts
Have you got brake levers besides the 'suicide levers'? I can't tell from the image, and the hoods look 'stubby'.here's a pic.
