How a bicycle is made.

In case you were wondering- this is from 1945. Nottingham, England. Raleigh Bicycles.  I love the heron chainring.

And now Raleigh USA is doing things like this- which is next on my list of bicycles.  Mmmmm.  Still sexy after all of these years…

    Wow what a cool video! Although I couldn’t get through all 18 minutes of it, what I skimmed was great. The record ace is definitely a good looking bike.

    Nice bike. I love the branding on it. Does it come in a 49? Why does Raleigh hate short people?

    With their largest being a 59, don’t worry–they’re hating both sides of the bell curve.

    Pretty crazy how most of the factory workers are doing their task barehanded, even the dude dipping the frames in the paint.
