Hi:

I just got my 69 White Raleigh Pro on the road for the 1st time. 1st thing I notices was how weak those Weinmann centerpulls are as I slowly rear ended a taxi in New York. No damage to me or bike. Would love to solve that issue. Besides that I am totally excited and surprised. The bike fits me better than my early 80s Colnago Masterlight. I wanted to tell list members about a great find. I put Tufo D28 tubulars on. They are 700x28 wide and awesome. Like big balloons. Really comfortable. They even come in a 30mm width. The 28s just fit the rear stays with the adjusters in the middle position. My LBS could not believe I wanted to put such wide tires on, but in my very short ride home from the bike shop, was really happy with them. Them come in a diamond tread pattern which you do not feel at all. Hoping to get some pictures up soon. Any help on improving braking power is very welcome.

NYC and leaving town soon
