Raleigh bikes, the Raleigh choppers, both Mk1 and Mk2, are collected around the world, although 1.5 million were sold they are now becoming scarce. Restoration is one way to restore those childhood memories of the bike you received one Christmas morning. The book takes you through the history, differing types, colours and variations.
The book is introduced by Alan Oakley, the Raleigh chief designer who introduced the Raleigh Chopper to the world.
The restoration details the entire process from choosing your bike, taking it apart, restoring the many components, rebuilding up to the final stage, riding it again.
The book is a must have for anyone interested in the Raleigh chopper and an essential companion for those attempting the restoration.
