1970 Raleigh Record Fixie re-do
I redid the Raleigh Record from a few days ago because the bottom bracket was cross threaded and the cotter pinned cranks and steel rims that came on it just wont hold up. Origin 8 cranks and cages, unsealed track hubs laced to Alex 450 Aero rims.

Raleigh Record single speed project
This is the exact same Record that I have, as seen in my personal Bike Check. I got to build this one in a low budget way similar to the way I would build mine if I made it a fixed gear. Normally I think turning old road bikes into fixies is blasphemy (just hunt down a vintage track frame for real), but this one came sans rear wheel, front derailleur, stock leather seat and had already been converted to cruising bars a long time ago so it was a prime exception to the rule. I didn't give this one the full beans because I didn't have the heart to smash apart the seized cotter pin cranks just yet, but we have some nice black and polished Origin 8 cranks and some hand build black and silver track wheels waiting for it for the right customer.

Jackson Poll-in-the-ass-ock
This break is actually waaay less common than you'd think from how sketchy that weld looks on old Raleigh's.
