1975 Raleigh Wayfarer

Hey Everyone

I have just recently restored a Raleigh Wayfarer, I was given this bike by a gentleman who came into the shop i work in and asked if anyone restored vintage bikes.

The bike was in very good condition when i got it but it did require a lot of cleaning and was in need of new tyres and grease.

Been a while and building a collection

Hey everyone sorry it has been a while i have a few things to be updating on here so will be getting pictures up and starting new bike threads soon !

I have 3 bikes currently going through restoration a bit about them here. (sorry about lack of pictures)

The first is a Raleigh Wayfarer ladies bike. is a really lovely bike with a brooks saddle, tool bag, orignal Raleigh mudguards, Raleigh chain guard and pump. have already started work on this and have got some pictures to put up when i find a memory card adapter so watch this space for pics

The next is a BSA Gold Crest from 1961 it is a really nice bike in a lovely deep red enamel and blue colour it came as just the frame forks cranks and pedals so i am slowly building up my parts catalogue for this one


The Last is a Dawes Shadow With Reynolds 500 tubing which i bought as a full bike needing some work but have stripped down and is undergoing a fixie conversion will get some pictures for this as soon as i can

Hope you have enjoyed this small post, expect a few more in the next few days !

First bike :) PUCH touring bike



Hey everyone 



Here is the first bike i am going to be doing ! I picked it up the other day at a local market. 


is a PUCH touring bike (not sure what model) in a really nice blue colour unfortunately it does not have any wheels with it so i will be putting some deep section rims on it and some track hubs. I am currently thinking either red rims with whitewall tyres or white rims with black tyres and red hubs
