A mate of mine back around 1986/1987 had a Raleigh 'Bomber'…. MAN IT WAS A MONSTER!.. It was BIG, thick tyres, i think a 3 speed setup, with a picture of a bomber airplane on the top rail… It was heavy, but… built like a tank… I loved it hahaha 😁😁😁
Dunlop rickshaw. I need those
Bro the chopper is a ripper man watch sam pilgrim do a downhill run on one its crazy haha
Qué país es? Saludos desde Juliaca-Perú
If you fill a tyre with helium it makes the bike heavier. Because you can compress helium alot lot more than sir and it is heavier than air at same psi
As a 10 year old? I thought all 10 year olds wanted a mountain bike and bmx?
Fantastic vid, love this!
2:26, checkout the chainring on the bike on the wall behind him.
A speed record on a rolling road… sounds a bit… ummm… cheaty to me.
please tell me you weighed the gifter.. i think my grifter weighed more than mu current bike.
i also trening kick boxing ,swiming,foot ball, running ..also cycling my bike is marke : la LAPIERRE
The "Bauer Weltmeister" is missing. 1952😎
Regards from Germany. ❤😎👌
Yo, I need that gear ratio on my bike! Holy shit!
Love these older bikes !
They were filled with helium? If seen videos of people doing that and it makes the bike heavier cause u need more helium to pump the tire up!
please give me a bike i got no bike please🙏🏻😌
Best bike has Donald Trump
U British?
oxe isso que eu chamo de uma coroa viu.kkkkkkkkkk
NASA tuhod yan
AWESOME
Awesome
Awesome
Oke but please ride cars
I have fond memories of the Raleigh Chopper!!! I found my love for cycling with that set of wheels.
Love these classic bikes! As a tandemist, the one I'd most want to take for a spin, would be that triple. Grab a couple of friends, and go flying around town.
can i ask permission to use this video as my story?
Outstanding episode
Ride the cycles
👏👏👏👌👌👍
I thought this was about fast bikes I guess not just a lot of yip Yap
Ultimates and the lotus sport bikes are easily the most beautiful bikes ever made.
Interesting seeing fastest bike around but would have been nice to go into how fast it actually went and it's place in the speed record standings history.
Thank you
where does one put his balls when riding that ultimate? (~4min)
The bartram its odd to see such a high end bike with only 1× gears i remeber 80s they had bikes with 21gears its was all about how meny gears you have
The brown bar tape is the wrong way around
You missed a detail about the aerodynamic helmet, it is covered in Golf-Ball dimples. This removes the boundary layer surface flow of air that sticks to the skin, and slows it down. That's why a Golf Ball with dimples flies at twice the speed & distance of a Golf ball without dimples.
Price pls??
I heard billy eillish loves bycicles
I have a fear of mask
Ahhh you make me sad, 10 years old when STI came out….I was 20….oh well
Sat on that ultimate bike I was related too Bruce bursford my cousin's husband, what a bike it was
So that's how 'Raleigh' is pronounced!
I really miss Jon’s enthusiasm and savviness!
You have permission, though you have The opportunity to touch every unforgetable bicycle and you took your chance 😂
Does it come with the decals on the frame Can we get it without the decals If not do they come off easily I just want a solid purple frame.
This bike was really easy to assemble https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though – the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700×25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.
