Raleigh TAP - Skyway Advice required

<< < (4/4)

monkian:
Most likely a budget thing. Probably a cheaper supplier ::)

I see Zippy has answered this over on Rewind...
Raleigh moved away from Tange to Koisumi for production of the AP/TAP.
Think they made one or two others in the range as well.
Dave's MkII Custom Cromo 'Night' Burner is also Koisumi made :daumenhoch:

Glynnyboy:
Jase check the rear dropouts. There were two sorts of team ap. The tange with the serial on the underneath of the BB and a Koisumi made frame which i believe the serial was on one of the rear dropouts, it would have the baseball sign with it.
Failing that it is most likely that the paint is to thick to see the serial on the bb and it's tange.

beard1973:
If its a Koizumi framed TAP then the Serial No. could take some uncovering.





Another tell-tale sign of a 'Koizumi' frame is the chain stay positioning...

KOIZUMI


TANGE

StellaAtoiz:
Cheers Glynn - will do :daumenhoch:

StellaAtoiz:
David.

You certainly know you way around the rear end of a Burner :daumenhoch:

Thanks for the info - serial number exactly where you said it would be ;)
