I am not as cool as JimVH. Nor or you. Well, unless you ARE JimVH.

Next on my list is tubes and tires, the "correct" kick stand, appropriate handlebar grips and a decent saddle.
I do miss the Brooks on my faithful old Peugeot P08.

What size frame is that? Are those 27" wheels or 700?
Like the cottered crank.

Its a 21" frame, which fits me.
Most all men's Raleigh Sports I've seen have been 27" frames.
The wheels take 26" tires, IIRC.

I want this more than just a little bit.
I would have to trick it out a little with a sissy bar, though.
