Hello everyone!

I stumbled onto your forum in search of vintage Raleigh info, so the vintage bicycle pages are my next stop. Just wanted to say Hi! :)

Welcome to the forum! Do you have a vintage Raleigh?

I have two; a mens and a ladies version. I am going to get some pictures posted today. The ladies version has rod brakes and mine has cable brakes. I am hoping to find out what Models they are, including possibly the years of mfg. My wife and I regularly ride them, they are a blast to ride around town. Both have some glitches in the shifting (in the hub?).

I am just looking to find out as much as I can about them, so that hopefully some members on this forum can help with locating parts, repairs, etc. Both of our passions include classic cars, so we definitely have the means to repair and maintain our bicycles ourselves.

Thanks for the warm welcomes, everyone!
