Does anyone here have the 'facts and figures' for a Raleigh 20 - wheelbase, head and seat-tube angles, BB height, 'effective' top-tube length, perhaps effective trail? I've Google'd to no avail...

I've had two over the years, and both, yes, both, had been 'pinched' between a car and the garage wall. But I'm still hopefull In article <1182275480.827232.96060@o61g2000hsh.googlegroups.com >, drjmwebb@gmail.com wrote: > On Jun 16, 10:20 pm, Joel Mayes <j.ma...@invalid.invalid> wrote: > > On 2007-06-17, urbanwriter <urbanwri...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > Does anyone here have the 'facts and figures' for a Raleigh 20 - > > > wheelbase, head and seat-tube angles, BB height, 'effective' top-tube > > > length, perhaps effective trail?

Though thinking more on it, you might get a better faster response by mailing Sheldon Brown. He has quite a bit of info on the Twenties, and could probably measure one of this for you. http://sheldonbrown.org/raleigh-twenty.html -- Dane Buson - sigdane@unixbigots.org "To move the cabin, push button for wishing floor.
