I know this always gets asked, but anyone know the exact model of these bars? Done my back in, and these look comfortable, sit up and beg, and yet suit the frame too. Was looking for some priests, or a similar shaped replica, but these look more relaxed.

Independent totally stole that paint job from me!
edit: I won't post the picture in here, because it's my own work, and not porn-worthy, but this is a paint job I did for a friend years ago. I call it 'digital fade'...

I *really *hate to mention it, and I may be wrong, and I hope I am, but those forks look like road forks...
(The Raleigh)
Edit: Actually fairly certain they are going by the brake drop and the clearance.
Yep you'd be correct, they are Raleigh 531 road forks from the same period - I didn't want to drill the original track forks, which I have also had restored, so I can always switch over when needed.
EDIT - I see someone has already replied - ta.

Okay, I'll bite.

The red lines on the diagram below should diverge at 4° to 8°, as shown they are at only 3°30'

Nothing at all, that's exactly how I keep mine, parallel to ground, dead-level. It's significantly more comfortable than angled to rear hub for me.
