I bought some NOS Bluemel’s fenders sized to 27” wheels for a vintage Raleigh. They’re British racing green to match the bike and have the Herron logo on them.
I can’t post photos of them yet as I’ve not met the minimum post requirement for a newbie - but I’ll come back and do so in a day or two :-).

Rider since 74. New here.
The bike isn’t BRG but it is green and British. Where it’s not faded, its original color it’s close.
I like that it’s the original paint but I also like to think how beautiful it would be with primarily BRG with a black head tube, black band on the seat tube and that band and the Nervex lugs lined in white. I need to mock it up.
British Racing Green swatch
Head tube with heron logo, Nervex lugs, and Simplex Gold friction shifters.
I know the handle bar tape needs replacing - I’ve just got some green and Khaki cloth tape to redo it in a harlequin pattern and am looking for the white Carlton hoods. All the aluminum, rims and hubs need a good polish.

Oh darn...I was hoping for BRG, still a cool bike. I love that it is "The Raleigh" and the old fenders are rad.
50voltphantom Welcome to the club, bruv. Challenge make fantastic tires that are a pain in the tookus to install but are such a lovely ride. My SS/FG RandoCross Fun Time Machine has Gravel Grinder Pros (and used to have the Strada Biachi Pros) and my touring bike has Gravel Grinder Races for a little more puncture protection.

Next time I need new Challenge Tires I will send them to you. My first set was agony now maybe that was the tubeless compatible rims with non-tubeless tires I don't know but my hands hurt.

Dura-Ace pedals. Definitely used condition, so I won't be afraid to beat on them. But the bearings are still silky-smooth, and that's what counts in my book.

I got the Moloko Adjunct Personal Effects Receptacle so I can hold some 'nanners and cool rocks on my rides. I am curious to see if I still get all my same hand positions on my Moloko bar with the bag on.

I'm feeling that blue color. I like my State Bicycle Pardi Boi. It came with their same standard white saddle, which was never used and sits in a tote with the pedals, and white bullhorns. Exchanged those things for a Selle SMP saddle, Odyssey pedals and Nitto bullmoose b904 handlebars. Enjoy the whip!

I was going to get to Koga Masume "Ikeda" Stands but just found out they are out of stock and I am hoping that another shop has some they will sell me and save my hinders from a stand I don't want.
and some of these (one for me the others as gifts):
And one of these for some XT cranks:
as well as a few other bits and bobs

Got a Cinelli Tipo Pista on the way to me. Ordered Cinelli Lola Bullhorns, DiaCompe Reverse Levers, Stamp 7 pedals, and a shimano 16T freewheel.
Considering selling some other bikes to look at a new wheel set and new brake calipers for it too. Trying to kit this thing to be just exactly what im looking for!

How do you like the Cordoba? I was considering it in comparison to the Tipo Pista. The Cinellie was only about 100 bucks more than the cordoba where i live. Also, nice helmet! I got a Lazer G1 Mips coming to me hopefully next week!

I don’t recommend anything from Aventon. Save up a little more money and buy a better quality bike. Get an All-City or something of similar quality. Aventon is trash.
