WANTED:   Raleigh Fenders DL1 posted by: Brian on 6/14/2000 at 11:38:08 AM
I have a rideable'64 DL-1,but the fenders have bad rust(New York rain/salt and poor storage by previous owner)
I'm overhauling this bike because I can't
stand to see it waste away unused/unwanted.Besides I'm an
incurable bike-aholic.Can any benevolent soul out there help me buy a set of fenders and/or chaincase? If anyone
knows of a good contact in the mid-Hudson Valley of New York
who works on/is knowledgeable on these bikes,that's good too.
