I took my 1950 Raleigh out to run some errands today... it is rolling around on some 650A wheels which look to be a replacement for the original Dunlop EA1 rims which is good as 650A tyres are plentiful while 26 by 1 1/4 aren't, unless you are me.

Anyways... the geometry on the older Sports is nearly identical to that of my 80's Kuwaharas which is pretty much identical to that of the Surly LHT.

The ride quality is simply stellar and the bike barely knows what a bump is.
