Found by the bins near where I live.
Total original (Mk1) i think with gear change on cross bar, ape bars, original raleigh pedals, one piece saddle intact etc etc.
Cannot quite believe it.

What next?
Any top tips?

cheers
Shiny
p.s. I live in Malaysia which makes it even more special to me.

Subcontract the tower block section of your paper round in exchange for a canny bag of Tudor?

Carry passengers.

The bicycle is not constructed for it but everyone loves a rebel.

Ride it. Realise they are awful. Put it on eBay and make over £400 profit. That's what I did when I bought one to restore but it turned out to be in very good condition and too nice to mess with.
