Raleigh Chopper

I saw it at the last Trexlertown meet, my buddy bought it, got it home, and there it sat till today when he offered it up. Needs a cleaning, repacking, and new tires that were included in the deal. Can't wait to take it out this summer! WooooHooooo! Good times man! good times!

Its an MK II if I'm not mistaken. I guess you can call it that. A friend and I found the MK II at the Trexler Town Swap Meet a few months ago, he took it home and that was that, did nothing to it, so he called me up wanting to get rid of it and I took it home. It was a decent and fair trade for both of us, I gave him my 1952 Schwinn Phantom that I had listed here on the "for sale" thread he gave me the MKII.

ah i wasn't sure, they look similar.

but .... what i'd do for one of those!
keeping it as is?

 

[ilikebikes]

Yes sir, I'll clean it up as best I can, repack everything, and ride the heck out of it this summer!

LLLooooovee it !

I like the Mk II over the Mk i , look better to me ( purists will disagree ).

Looks real clean, too.

I have a purple one I need to get one, not near as clean as yours. been trying to find a guard for well over a year. only thing missing on yours ( and mine ) .

Any idea where the new tires can be had ? or are they from Ttown, too ?

here's a so-so pic of my purple one.

Not sure? I think he bought them at Ttown when he picked up the bike, included them in the trade.
