Hi Guys and Girls Picked the bike up in 2017 from Nottingham and researched what it should look like (a lot) Kept the design scheme but changed the colours to lift it; Re paint / chromed everywhere, Spent loads but wow it is beautiful now Campag Nuovo record with a brooks professional saddle from 1977 Nice stem with GB bars / got some old new stock bar tape to finish 25mm Tubs on fiamme rims / Normandy hubs "One for the wall" See start to finish Raleigh Professional Enjoy

Thank you for the kind words fellas Picked up a nice silver fillet brazed tack frame from Racer Rosa Very new for me but fancied doing a flip flop type Nightmare with alloy headset in steel, they are so difficult to fit without damaging them and always seem to cut their own new thread Hunting for parts at the moment Regards

Excellent workmanship and a wonderful looking bike. I will enjoy seeing your Racer Rosa; I take it that it was tailored for you.
Cheers Jim
