Got my first Folder today!
I was picking up some bikes this morning and spotted a Folding bike. Turns out it is a Raleigh Folder model. Nice copper color with the 3 speed hub.
Its all stock except the seat is from a Magna and it has some paint overspray on it.
Anyone else out there with them? My friends have no idea why I think its cool.
