- I love watching bike restoration videos on RUclips and just started doing them myself. I'm still new to this so please send any tips and tricks.
This is a 3-speed 1973 Raleigh Sports. I bought a "his & hers" pair with matching color. I love the color so chose to keep the patina and not re-paint.
Will definitely be doing more of these so stay tuned! Almost everything I've ever learned about bikes is from @RJTheBikeGuy so make sure to check out his channel!
Привет из России.Мне очень понравился это велосипед из прошлого ,у нас был похожий под названием ЗиЧ, Спутник,Турист,а основная масса велосипедов шла с каретками под клинбя,задняя втулка типа Торпедо.Сам езжу на велосипеде СССР на базе ПВЗ 21 -В
Лайк вашему труду и отношению к тезнике,большое спасибо ❤❤❤
I've watched a lot of old snoopy reruns on tv as a kid in the 90s. This bike reminds me of Lucy and Linus little brother Re-run. His mom always strapped him in the bike seat and this kid is doing his best to make sure his mom and himself ALIVE. Lovely job on the restoration keep up the good work.
Beautiful video ! Very clean job. I hope others videos are coming !!!!
Good choice on preservation, rather than a full on restoration. The older bikes have a lot of character and good quality components that last a long time, nice to see another one back on the road, Thanks.
What a beautiful restoration! I had a lovely 1966 Raleigh Golden Deluxe Sports bicycle, which was similar to this one. It brought back many happy memories. Hope t see more restorations.

If you do not have a cotter pin press the best way to install it is with a 16oz brass or copper hammer..when you strike the cotter pin you may damage the bearings..the brass is softer than the bearings..great job..
i love how they called them "sports"...these old tanks were so traumatic to my childhood i got a motorcycle as soon as i could and didn't start cycling again til i was in my 40's 😂
Raleigh has always been a slightly delusional kind of company. Very entertaining manufacturing tendencies for sure…….
You did a much better job than I did. I used mineral spirits to degrease and clean the oily bits on my '74.
And it probably rides just as smooth as mine!
AMAZING job! Subscribed :)
Nice work
Nice detailed restoration. I'm currently doing the same with a 70's Raleigh Sprite men's 10-speed. Glad it's not that Sturmey Archer 3 sp with a hundred little parts!
Wonderful
Looks great, more please.
Wow!
Great video❤
Thank you!
เคยหัดขี่รุ่นนี้เมื่อ65ปีก่อนต้องนั่งตะแกรงหลัง.. 73ปีเวลานี้ไทยแลนด์..
Very good result for a lot of work! Funny you even restored the child's seat and the bag! As if they are part of the bike. You removed the rust from the inside of the rims. When I did that long time ago) I then painted it with primer or something like that. Moist gets in there through the spoke holes, and it will continue to rust if untreated. Just a remark. Curious about the next one.
Impressive
Perfect, cheers from Portugal ;)
Superb video George U.K. !
More vids please! Your channel rocks!
YOU GOT TO BE JOKING ME WITH THAT CRESCENT WRENCH?!
WHY are you shouting, good sir!
nice job !!!!
superb work and beuatiful machine
The little wire thingys in the hub look like Raleigh “R”. Sort of neat.😊
Bravíssimo! Bravíssimo!!!!
A heavy thing but nice on the flat roads.😊
i had a ‘69 in black, stolen. had a ‘70 in green, stolen. maybe gotta hop the pond where they’re readily( or at least) available.
Lol I rode around on the identical child's seat except in red plaid
😃
Very nice
Hi there. Very nice job, just a small thing i think i saw the chain link faceing the wrong way, closed end should face the direction of travel, so if it gets caught it wont get pushed off. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Richard! Will switch that around
Great video!!!

You would have eliminated that ugly chair, very nice bicycle to ride that
Jesus! Is your worship jet engine powered?
Video ridicolo!| Questo non è una restaurazione ma solo una pulizia (clining)
What would make it a restoration?
You make me cringe with your use of a crescent wrench, and as for using tyre levers to install a tyre, shame on you. However, nothing but admiration in pulling apart a three speed hub, well done. The wrench and tyre levers would have got me a clip round the ears from my old man back in the late 50's.
