What road bike do you have?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Nice looking bike. I'd get clipless pedals if I were you (they are so much better) and perhaps lose the frame pump in favour of CO2 cartridges but that is a fine looking ride. Enjoy!

oh, and thats a lot of spacers under your stem....I'm totally fine with some spacers in there and being comfortable but that seems like a lot....

Thanks in advance
It is a Raleigh... crisper pictures would really help but it is a later model that looks like it is built on a Reynold's tube set so should be pretty decent.

1990's steel with some relatively modern upgrades... and a few more are coming.


Proctor Custom

My vintage racing bike can hold it's own quite well and is a bit lighter than the Proctor and gets lighter still with it's tubulars.

Thanks guys. I actually replaced the seat with a white fizik arione and replaced the hoods with the white version. Thought I would try something a little different. I am currently bidding on a set of ZIPP's on ebay...

These bikes are hot!!!
I'm contemplating on building up an older steel frame too.
Nothing really special, just an older Japanese frame, I have a few nice offers but I'm still on the fence.
