Well, This is it. I have noticed it looks alot like Raleigh's and Hercule's, I dont think there is any correlation between any of them. I've done a little research, As far as I know there are still in production. They have a complete line all named after animals This one is The Peacock! I believe.

I am trying to find reflectors. Rear Fender and Headset. If anyone has some Raleigh reflectors sitting around, take a look and see if you think they'll fit, then, let me know what you want for em!?

After Kota's (mine now) Raleigh twin bar, i fell in love with these bikes (along with stephens foldings)

The prong on the front looks like it will accept a Raleigh headlamp.

It looks like this bike uses a chaincase also.

It looks brand new, where did you get it?

Cool bike.....These are being made in India and China still. I like all the graphics .

The wheel locks are cool. The are used alot on Dutch bikes and others like Joshua's DBS.

Raleigh HeadLamp, huh? Chain Case, I'll have to take a closer look. I've had it for about 3years and only ridden it once. The wheels keep breaking spokes and I just need to rebuild them.I traded a $90 Worksman Folding for it up in Idaho. (There's a few spots up there too Clancy!)

What kind of piece of crap mountain bike is in the background?

 

[66olds98]

That thing in the back is only the most ......, toughest, ......., smoothest, righteous. set up, thing any of you ever wish you could own!!! :mrgreen:

 

[floridasfavson]

I'll give you $20 bucks for it.

 

[66olds98]

LOL! I'll sell you the chain for that much! LOL!

 

[floridasfavson]

Alright $30 bucks and a cup of coffee.

 

[66olds98]

OK, you can have my old front wheel! LOL!

 

[66olds98]

Lock and Key. the lock looks like you could rip it off with your bare hands...

 

[sensor]

you might be able too........but it sure looks cool!

Ah yeah, the rear wheel locks are SO convenient. All my bikes, excluding the Electra, have had them, and I've mostly used them as a parking brake. (Parking the bike on an incline? No problem) :mrgreen:

Cool bike, btw. Curious on the build quality though.
