I was given 2 old Raleigh Bikes, one was a 1953 and the other was a 1954. These were bikes owned since new by the gifter and his brother.
You could see where they had received new pocket knives because they had carved into the otherwise beautiful Brooks seats.
On close inspection I noticed that on both of these bikes, someone had over tightened the kickstand to the degree that the tubes were crushed!
Must have received a new wrench at some point, too.
They were passed on to a friend who bleeds Raleigh.
