1972 Raleigh Twenty Folder

Another Craigslist find. I offered the seller $120 for it. It was missing the original hinge lock, chainguard, pump and was a little rusty but otherwise in good condition.


Here is how it looked like when I first got it.
I replaced the 20x2.1 Cheng Sheng tires with a 20x1.85 Drive Technologies Load tires. I also replace the improvised hinged lock with a stainless 3/8x1" allen bolt.




It had a Persons spring saddle which felt very comfortable. I cant decide yet whether I am going to restore it or to modify it.
