Holy hell, it took me years to find a channel that wasn't focused solely on racing or shilling the latest fad trinkets. Keep fighting the good fight, my friend, and I'll keep watching!
gaddamn workhorses, those old Raleighs, that may well outlast us all. The cablr routing on mixte & step-through frames is a recipe for water influx, though :-( Also: first upgrade should be to alloy wheels: SunRim CR-18s come in this 650A/26x1 3/8 size. Truthfully, though, I came for the Rambler news drop ;-)
Good call on the cables! I’ll keep an eye on that. Thinking of keeping the wheels as is. They’re in good shape and I truly don’t think this bike has been ridden much.
