Raleigh Maverick

Raleigh Maverick

1985

Retro MTB

Colourful build

26inch

This lovely Raleigh Maverick came fully original, it had a good life but was in pretty good condition. I decided to make it my new commuter so didn't go the full restoration route. Instead it got a small makeover, larger tyres with mudguards, a 1x drivetrain instead of the triple and a front rack. I kept the original handlebar which had a really nice sweep and chrome finish. And the last touch was some accents of colours with some pink and yellow, turned out pretty well!
