I've been looking for a 70-80's tourer.

Received this today, (sellers pic, unable to upload from photobucket).

Nothing fancy,a Raleigh Routier, basic sturdy frame, with a small bit of rust and will need new wheels.

Plenty of attachment points, stainless fenders and a rack, very 70's-80's.

Nice colour scheme, more of a touring geometry than road.

Just needs new wheels as they are past saving, a bit of tidying up, bar tape and saddle and off we go.

Now I'd prefer to stick with chrome wheels if I can find any and take a risk in the rain and not spoil the look and put on alloys, but common sense may prevail!?

Polished alloys may be the answer.
