I know its not going to be the best bike but i really enjoy it being my first bike an all
any info or feedback will be greatly recieved.[IMG]/img/vbsmilies/smilies/icon14.gif[/IMG]
many many thanks,
In 1989, the Raleigh Kelloggs Pro Tour was a respectable entry level bicycle. No where near top of the line but far from the bottom too. They were fairly popular in GB and there are still a lot of them to be found. I don't have an MSRP, but a comparable bike in 1989 would have cost in the area if 330 Euros. I haven't ridden that particular model Raleigh but I have ridden a lot of other models of Raleigh from that era and the steel frame bikes were very comfortable and gave a good predictable ride.
hi thanks for all the information, really helped, as ive just completed my first long distance cycle of 80 miles on this bike which i really loved and found it very comfortable. only cost me £60, again many thanks [IMG]/img/vbsmilies/smilies/smile.gif[/IMG]
