raleigh twenty

[steveindenmark]

Road Rash, i really like that new slant on an old bike, you have done a good job there.

But when I look at the Raleigh 20 something in my mind tells me it should have been a folder.

..........I have just seen that there is a raleigh Stowaway :0)

 

[roadrash]

Thanks for your comments Steve, .... both folding and non folding varietys were available under many different names, , they were made by Raleigh and badged as raleigh twenty, BSA twenty, triumph twenty, etc and various guises of the folding twenty were also available.

Well the twenty frame has gone, but I am collecting a Raleigh Stowaway that is complete, but totally stripped down tonight, as the previous owner was going to paint it.

Should make an interesting build, might be calling on you guys for help when it comes to putting it back together.

Pics to follow.

pics ....when you pick it up.

Here it is...

 

[roadrash]

these folders fit in the doot easy dont they .

 

[GarryG]

They do, everything looks good on this one, even down to the chrome mudguards, etc..

Was thinking of repainting, as it has already been done by the previous owner in this colour. Although I might put it all together first to check it over.

 

[GarryG]

How many have you got now @roadrash ?

 

[roadrash]

just the one pictured on this page at the moment but that could soon change

 

[GarryG]

Have you had that one sprayed/powder coated?

 

[roadrash]

No , the frame on that one is original,
this one was powder coated at stockport powder coaters

That original paint looks great!

 

[roadrash]

have you started putting yours together yet or are you painting/powder coating first.
