I would check the weight Si, those seat guts scream cheap and heavy,
would you be better off with a more race bread bike?

DINGO

What's wrong with the SE/Floval you bought at Hersden, Zippy?

Zippy · « **Reply #11 on:** September 30, 2007, 11:35 PM »

Nothing at all, I love it to bit's. In fact i went for a ride with my daughter today on here tag along bike and it was a good little ride.

The thing is I was thinking of getting one of these and painting it in Team colours for the wife. They'd only cost me 100 pounds with my staff discount.

I see. Keeping the proper bike for yourself

I like the invisible forks and bars on the bike above.

Frame is actually quite nice but the components are spec'd down to a low price point unfortunately. It'll be fine for the wife to ride down the seafont on though. Especially at the price I get them for.

good on raleigh

good enough starter bike that,
glad to see they havent put any "kooky" shite on it!

geometry looks ok, a-headset, bars look sweepy but they'd be ok for a while,
the front v-brake might seem odd but its actually a better idea if the rider wants to keep the brake on, it'll work better than a cheapo caliper anyday!

the parts are specced to a price like you say but it looks to be a good cheap price so f-it!
gets riders started so it's all good out of the box,

cant really see the overall finish quality but again at the price you wont be getting s&m/standard from anyone else anyway,

good for raleigh,
well done to them like

Zippy · « **Reply #21 on:** October 02, 2007, 08:59 AM »

Burnerworld have actually all chipped in and bought a quadangle frame and forks and at the next bash we're going to burn that to the ground.

Zippy · « **Reply #22 on:** November 24, 2007, 02:43 PM »

Actually had this delivered to the shop and we built it up this morning. It sold within 10 minutes.

They're actually very good bikes and if you want a cheap cruiser to start racing on that you can upgrade later this is a great start.

It works out that I can sell them to you guy's for £145. I think that's a pretty good deal.

wolfybmx · « **Reply #23 on:** November 24, 2007, 06:27 PM »

thats only 1 to my 12 haro's sold then

Zippy · « **Reply #24 on:** November 24, 2007, 09:59 PM »

Didn't realise this was a territorial pissing competiton. But 12 cruisers sold in the 4 years you've been open is rightly something to be very proud off.

However if you want a 'cheap' entry level cruiser before splashing out big bucks on a really good cruiser then this would be a good choice.
