Hello all

Glad to see the interest in the Raleigh 20, and thought I would add a photo of one of my small fleet.

Nice bike! Details on the upgrades? Looks like you've invested some effort into it!

That's a nice one - it's what - a ten speed?
Love the kingfisher blue paint... Do you use it much?

Most welcome! There can never be enough 20 afficionados here i think. Especially ones with such nice rides! Beautifull!

BTW, looks like you are running the Mountainrack I, just like me.. Is this correct? How do you like it? Have you ever considered having it modified so it's lower or are you fine with it? What kind of bag is that?

Rack is (I think) just a cheap copy of a Trek design. Bag is by Altura. I also use standard panniers occasionally, so am happy with the height.

Only 6 speed. 42/52 chainset with standard SA AW (18T) rear derailleur just acts as chain tensioner. Still standard wheels, bb, forks.

Have used it quite a bit, but needed to replace both Primo tyres in about 1200 miles (local roads in Devon can be a bit primitive!), so now have restricted use slightly as have another for commuting, shopping etc.
