1987 Raleigh Shock
1987 Raleigh Shock
Heres my 87' Raliegh Shock.. Bought it in fair shape, but needed new tires, tubes, brake cables and pads.. Originaly Yellow grips pedals and brake cables had to go. White just looked so much better. I love the dbl toptube bikes!!! Allways looking for more if the price is rite..
Fat people are way cooler!!

Re: 1987 Raleigh Shock

Re: 1987 Raleigh Shock
Bam! This is the exact bike I had back in the day! I loved that bike....it killed me when it got stolen. I used to surf with a foot on the handlebars and one on the foot rest behind the seat going down hills, ahhhhh to be young again. Man what i would do to be able to own another.
