Hi there,

New to this. I am just about to start restoring an old Raleigh Clubman circa 1950 - I think. It has Weinman 500 and 750 brakes and thats about all I know. I am taking the componentry off and will tidy them up. Then its the frame to get back to its shop state.

Any tips will be mush appreciated. I may have a few questions along the way.

Here's one - Is it best to take the components to a metal restorer, or is this the sort of thing i can do my self with an off the shelf product?

Cheers,
R&C
