Raleigh Twenty photo
 

Just wanted to share this photo my partner took this morning on her commute to work on the R20. I love this bike! For a while I wondered if we should have dropped the cash we did buying/restoring it, since we don't really "need" it. But the Twenty is so much fun, I have no regrets.

VERY CLASSY

The matching Brooks saddle and hand grips look awesome

Well done :thumb:

Yeah, that's very nice, good work.

I was wondering what drove all that traffic to my Flickr page! I *love* this bike. I'm reminded how much fun it is every time I ride it. I just ran it to my LBS on my lunch break so the mechanic there could check it out; he's been asking to see it since the store opened in June.

Sharp! That is what all Twentys should aspire to look like ;)


Here are a couple of my beauty shots from a while back. I AM NOT a photographer, in fact digital was the single greatest advancement for me, saved a bundle on film, developing bad pictures.:p

The late Sheldon Brown deserves the credit for popularizing it and as he and others have noted, with suitable upgrades, the Twenty can approach the performance of a Bike Friday at a fraction of the cost.

It rides like a full sized Raleigh Sports.

63/64 is a fraction, right? (saving up for that alfine 11 if it ever comes out)

Nice Twenty's....You should post 'em over on the raleightwenty.webs.com site too.

Here she is watching the Philadelphia Marathon ;)

Spring Garden Street Bridge?

Yep, it's part of my regular daily commute.
