whats in the box

the new bomber has landed with me, and at first glance its a nice bike, tidy welds, good components, well built and is already selling very well so a job well done to raleigh, a few niggles like why didnt they carry over the search lights and lancaster bomber decals instead of skulls which i dont get (BOMBERS=SKULLS) and the frame could have been slightly bigger as in cruiser style rather than BMX style, i like the bars and i love the chain ring drilled style, all in all a nice bike and one of the best from raleigh for a long long time.....

better than some sh1te ive seen and for the price i reckon they are quality

[admin]

Oh yeah good value for money but the welds (on mine) could be tidier.

I think you guys should do the changes on it to make it more like the original and send the pictures to raleigh. ;D

Talking of original heres a nice NOS one at brooklands museum today. ;D



Is the chainwheel normally like that? or is this a mk2?

stunning

Being the 5 speed , they had a totally different set up. Sugino cranks and tange BBs

I wanted to nick it along with the grifters!!! ;D I wonder who donated them?

The sticker on the top tube was a new bike sticker with the delivery address etc... thats why i thought it was NOS

[admin]
