Frame to put stuff on

Bought a spotless blue Raleigh frame a few weeks ago. It must be late 80's but brand new. Can't decide what kit to put on it, if I put cheaper stuff on it I will get to ride it sooner but I'm in love with a new Dura Ace chainset but can't justify it. Those FSA Chainsets with free bottom bracket at Pearsons look like a good deal at the moment? I was thinking of putting a brown Charge spoon saddle with brown handle bar tape on alloy coloured bars and stem. Can anyone suggest a quill stem which looks a bit more modern or would you put a quill/aheadset converter on for more choice? Can anyone recommend wheels £80 -£150? Give me some guidance here...

Cheers

Bought some super-cheap cross-top levers here.

No probs.

Scored my Deep-Vs from benscycle a couple of years back.

Got royally fucked by Customs and ParcelFarce.

The Charge Spoon is the most comfortable saddle I've ever parted my £20 with, for that much I was expecting a moderate amount of comfortness, but damn 11 miles and it's still comfortable as fuck.

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
