Wow, superb collection Neil

I had a burner the same colour scheme as the Tuff, except I didn't have the cool yellow wheels.
Was that the standard burner then?

Infact the more I think of it I have a feeling its in the shed, hidden by Golf & Mini bits lol
Its not going to be as shiney as that one though :oops:
Must dig it out and get a photo for a laugh (Rat look? :laughing: )

Its not as "Rat Look" as I thought it would be considering its about 30 years old :laughing:

loadsa stuff
just outa interest, what would an un-restored one of these be worth today roughly?
It would depend on a number of factors. Is it complete? With original parts (rims, brakes, bars, seat)? Or is it just a tatty frame and fork that has all its original bits swapped over the years?

That was some collection - but to have none? Something must have taken their place?

Lol that has just taken me back about 25 years, I had a team burner when growing up pure class, even had thoughts of trying to get another just to have.

a rather nice Porsche took their place, filled it nicely, burying their memory each time he presses the GO pedal I expect!

This brings back memories, I used to go over to my granny's house in Nottingham every summer when I was young, the fella that lived next door to her worked for Raleigh when they still built bikes in Nottingham, I remember his son used to ride about on all sorts of hardware like this, I was stuck with a big, heavy Raleigh Commando, the poor ugly relation of the Chopper!
