    My Mrs bought this for our nipper for me to restore thinking it was a chopper. It's not nor is it a Tomahawk or a Budgie or even made by Raleigh. SOOOO Any ideas?

    Its at a crazy angle thats what it is! Hurt my neck tuning upside down to work out how that was floating and which way was down.

    Late 70's early 80's lots of Chopperlike bikes on the streets! Clearly needs to be painted black with flames down it, alfine hub, 8 inch rotas front and back (they take some stopping those steel bikes). maybe drill it for internal cable routing as well?

    I think it could even be a Raleigh Chipper. Think smaller version of the Chopper.

    It's pretty close to a Chipper but i think it's a Chipper-inspired bandwagonesque bike. I had a purple Tomahawk.

    tis not a chipper according to Google images. Trying to find Chipper/Chopper copies on Google other than the Stingray is difficult though. Good luck

    I had a Purple Tomahawk when I crashed my Chopper and landed on the shifter!! Took weeks to go back to the normal colour.
