My Bike Model

She is a Raleigh Romana built sometime between 1989 and 1992. She would have cost approximately £160 ($305) new.

Raleigh only used the mixte frame on two models - the Romana and the Impulse. Both were sports bikes.

I got the info from a chap on the Raleigh forum. There's no facility on there to put pics so I e-mailed him the pics and he came back with that info.

Nice to know what model she is and her approximate age

And while we're waiting for others to ask intelligent questions, I have to ask what I always ask --

What color is she?

Maroon?

Beautiful ain't she??????

Wow! That's a good looking bike. Glad you found out her info!

That bike looks like it's in great shape and is very handsome!

I'd be interested in knowing the two wheel/tire sizes. I think I recall you saying they are the original tires?...
Are they 2 diff. sizes? Should be marked on the tires...

I'll be going out on her shortly - will have a look and post when I get back.

You might get more info on the model/etc if you look up the BIN number... just a thought. =D I love finding 'mystery' objects and learning as much as I can about them!!!
