Re: Raleigh Twin Bar-Received
Well, Since i was daydreaming all day about this bike-heres my plans
Get rid of the thumb shifter-either put a nice one on it or get a Strumey Archer stick from superstuff
Rid the bike of rust-This Weekend im going to take it apart and clean it up, But im NOT going to repaint it yet...might save it for a build off or something
White walls-I ordered some today, Curious to how theyre gonna look with the paint
Paint it-I dont know what color yet...I like Black and gold so far, but i dont think it will fit with the WWalls
http://cgi.ebay.com/NOS-Raleigh-Chopper ... dZViewItem
gimmie some approval on that color

I voted red but, I think either dark red or black would look pretty nice.

This bike must really hate me
Actually got to riding it...after pelting the rear hub with grease...It worked only in one gear, until it moved itself out of it.
Well, Got off the bike and geuss what
BAAAAAAAM
rear tire went this time, Ears actually rang...sounded like a gunshot
Funny-It was smoking as i got off it too.
all i can say is-I love you too raleigh twin bar :lol:
