Picked this up a month or so ago and just finished getting it all sorted, bar some suitable pedals as Wellgo B27's don't really go with it.

Brought it for £77 and after sorting it out I'm in for £120 odd, so not too bad 8)

I very nearly brought an old Raleigh off eBay last month but due to the car falling apart I could not up the bid and had to let it go. I want one for commuting and a spot of touring.

That sir is a nice bike.

Thanks guys, I've stuck it up on Retrobike too.

There's loads on eBay neilson, you shouldn't have too much trouble finding something.

Next project is a Dawes roadie of a similar vintage.
