radman Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 So purchased my self a Raleigh 20 for my birthday. Wasn't going to do anything to it, and by OS standards i haven't really touched it at all but thought i'd start a thread anyway. When i got it : White walls added: Cheap dynamo light from Ebay bolted on but not wired up because it never came with any wiring and i'm to useless and lazy to figure it out: And that's it for now. Maybe next on the list is a Brooks saddle or similar style because the current one is a bit un-comfy, and maybe new rims and brake cable etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llama Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Mmm white walls. Where did you get yours from? I be needing a few, although I'm tempted just to paint them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seedy Al Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Wiring is a real piece of piss Everything just earths throught the frame, so you just have to run a wire from the bulb holder to the dynamo front and back. usually the Lights have a little screw the forces into the frame as an earth. Also If your running the wiring, when you have it in the light housing, tie a knot in the wiring to prevent it from coming out the hole If you get what I mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
