New to me Raleigh Portage
All cleaned up and getting miles. This is the reason for the 650b tire questions. Kept it fairly simple.Deerhead FD and RD (sweet twin plate version)
Suntour bar ends shifters
Sakae AX triple crankset
Raleigh sealed bearing hubs (I assume sourced from another manufacturer)
Sugino seat post and mystery seat
Stock Shimano canits with Cane Creek levers
Cinelli stem
Old Nitto super wide bars
Blackburn racks (I have the original bottle cages, just not back on the bike yet)
Banjo Brothers bags
Rides nicely, but I'm still adapting to gravel riding with narrow tires.

Nice Score! interesting blog post on your model bike here although if you did any google searches you've probably already seen it.
