Heh, I already have a Raleigh Twenty (a Raleigh £20, as it were) for hack/folder duties and a singlespeed Kona rigid mountain-bike with mudguard eyelets and rack mounts too...

So I suppose if I decide that I want to go fully loaded touring, I can transfer the triple groupset to the Kona and it'll make just a good/better tourer than the Raleigh anyway.
