The Raleigh twenty was sold with both 405 and 451 rims at different times. Seems that the 451 versions are more common in the UK than in the US. Mine was built with 405's but I changed the rear wheel.

Currently deciding whether to fit some orange dahon slelvio special edition rubber when she gets back from the shop. Would certainly look cool but maybe will lose the stealth capabilities..
Visibility is a good thing. Don't forget to post some pictures when you get it built.
