Picked up this old 1986 Raleigh equipe on gumtree and giving it a new life . Blasted and powder coat finish with new saddle , brake cable and single speed freewheel so far . Thinking of keeping the suicude levers . Just had its first run out !

That's very nice. Brings back memories of my childhood. :smile:

And it's red!

Nice. Very nice.

If I can make one teensy suggestion though, get rid of those spoke reflector thingies. :okay:

I know what you mean , I usually always take these off but have kept the old retro front and back ones as I thought it added to the retro look . I'm undecided on wheels ;)

My Raleigh Equipe (actually a Super Equipe cos it's the red/white version) still has the suicide levers on.
And 12 gears. :whistle:
Got a pic ? Would like to see it
