Hi all

I still have my first push bike which has been in storage since I stopped using it at the age of 6!

I would now like to have it restored for my children.

Its an early Raleigh which my Dad bought from the local market in about 1974,it must date from the late 1940's as there is a trike version in the Brooklands museum!

Does anyone know of a bike restorer in East Anglia who could get it back to its former glory?

Look forward to hearing from you.

If you post up a few piccies of it then there will be a better indication of its condition and what is required. As long as the frame does not require any welding you may find you can do all the work yourself - mucho satisfaction?
