Absolutely beautiful collection. I would probably put them in the exact same order and I haven't even ridden them. Being born in '75 , the style of the bikes really resonates with me . Adventure riding is definitely the most fun type of riding. I usually roll out the garage, pick a direction and just ride! People would be so much happier if they spent a few hours a week on a bike. Thanks for sharing your awesome collection.

Love the Bob Jackson. I had mine built for me in 1998 because they were my local builders.8 countries and many thousands of miles, it’s sublime. The frames are all silver soldered, not brazed, and without a jig, because they don’t want to build stresses in by forcing it to stay in the jig. It’s just soldered up perfectly by hand so the tubes are relaxed. They are more special than most people realise, and the Heychins framrs of that era were all built by the same guys in the same way. It’s basically a non-curly Hetchins.

#10: 1978 I graduated HS and rediscovered my love of bicycles. Our LBS was a Raleigh dealer. Hal, the proprietor, gave me a catalog to look over before I chose. I wanted that Super Course because it had the 531 main tubes and alloy wheels but it was a little out of reach. I opted for the Super Grand Prix, a step below. It had straight gauge tubing, 700c alloy wheels with presta valves, which I thought were really neat. But the coolest feature was the Suntour barcon shifters. Raleighs of that era are so cool. I still would love to have a Raleigh International of that vintage. Added: I rode Merlin mountain bikes (1990, 1993, 1997) from 1990 to 2013 (in 2013 I got my custom Coconino). Loved my Merlins. I gave my last Merlin (1997) to a friend. It still lives a happy life on the Navajo Nation. BTW, you have a cool corral of bicycles.

Isn’t it crazy how the bikes that are the cheapest and most hastily tossed together always just seem to ride amazing? Kinda like your Bob Jackson. I have a GT that I rescued years ago that was in rough shape that I paid $50 for. I revived it using just random parts that I had laying around with the idea of creating a cheap street beater that I could ride around he city but if it got stolen I wouldn’t be super upset, but little did I know that I was creating my most Favorite and most Fun bike to ride ever! It feels like a big bmx bike that just Rolls for days. I absolutely Love it. It does Everything So Good and I would be devastated if anything happened to it. The welds are beginning to crack where the seat stays meet to post, but I keep my eye on it. You’ve got some Beautiful bikes. That blue Waterford is Gorgeous. I love those fenders.

Bob Jackson were just up the road from me. Woodrups were another good frame builder nearby. Jackson were higher quality tho, won a LOT of races back in the day, competed in all the grand tours, world champs, Olympics, the lot. The shop was more like a garage than a showroom, they had this weird contraption they used for sizing you up for frames in the middle of the place & little product on display. Customer service was basic, they'd listen a few seconds, then tell you what you needed with zero BS or sales tactics. Just "this is the cheap option, this is the expensive one, take your pick & get out cos we got bikes to build" lol.

When I worked at a shop and did all the racing stuff I had usually at least 12 different bikes in the garage. Anything from the fancy light weight road racer to a single speed rigid mtb. After I left the shop world I sold them all, and years later (about the time Covid hit) I built the bike I always wanted, a Surly Karate Monkey with all the fancy parts I could never afford back in the day. I know there are fancier frames, but it’s what I wanted and it’s bombproof. Love this bike.

My very first "new" bike was a Raleigh similar to yours except from around 1974ish. My Dad boight 2, one for my sister. Mine was stolen about 6 months later and I replaced it with a Gran Course (1 up) and put Phil Wood hubs on it. It broke at the drive side chainstay an the early 1980's. The upper end Carlton Raleighs woukd use 531C tubing and those were very light, under 20 lbs but we called them "one season" frames because they were relatively fragile. Interesting side note: The S.C. was Tom Ritchey's first bike. Same time period as mine but I'm several years younger, ; ) All great bikes!!!! Thanks!

I cannot even remember what brand it was but was that popular Forest green color that seemed like every bike company had. All these years later reliving my 29th or so childhood yet again and bought and fixed up a used BMX again. Who says you can't relive your youth!

oh mon, that RALIEGH! back in the late 70s, a friend gave me his early 70s Raleigh Pro Mk IV frame because it was too tall for him, and a perfect fit for me, so I moved all my Campi stuff off my 1975 Motobecane Grand Record, and it was the most awesome bike I ever owned. 2x5 speeds, campi sidepull brakes, campi superrecord crankset and derailleurs, with downtube friction shifters, Cinelli bars... I had a 54-42 front, and I used various rear freewheels, generally a 13-15-17-20-24. God, I loved that bike, then I was chasing a girl I wanted to date after work, and she braked abruptly and I tail ended her car and bent the forks and frame :( I think we had 1 or 2 dates after that and she decided I was too nerdy. It was a mink gold with silver-grey trim, not that different than yours

Yeeaahhh, the Waterford absolutely! I just got my first "fancybike," (not counting my ebike which is kinda fancy I guess), and it is pretty much the same style down to the hammered fenders and the Herse tires (with Herse TPU tubes). Custom built for me! Which is nice b/c I'm 6'4" / 193cm in bare feet, and it's bloody hard to find frames that fit. You're lucky you're normal-sized lol. I freakin' love it.

Well done, Andy! You have a marvelous collection of beautiful bikes! 😁👍 My current fleet has 3 very different road/gravel bikes and a ‘73 Raleigh Sports 3 speed town bike, with an outrageously comfortable Brooks B73 saddle - 3 springs, no waiting! Roadies include: ‘98 Basso Gap with Dura Ace 7700 cranks, brakes, front derailleur, and shifters plus XTR M952 rear derailleur and 11-34 cassette. WTB SST 98 saddle, Mavic Cosmic Elite wheelset, bike weighs 21lbs 14oz with Schwalbe Pro One 700x23c tires ‘11 Cannondale Synapse with Shimano 105 (5603) 3x10 cranks, brakes, front derailleur, and shifters plus XTR M971 derailleur and 11-36 XT cassette. Brooks B17 saddle, Mavic Aksium Race wheelset, weighs 20lbs 15oz with Schwalbe Pro One 700x28c tires ‘12 Motobecane Strada LTD “gravel” bike. It’s the bike I ride the most, for a lot of reasons: it’s a chrome-plated bit of eye candy, I bought it for $100, it’s fast and extremely comfortable. 3X9 Ultegra 6503 shift/brake levers, Claris triple cranks and derailleurs, XTR 11-34 cassette. Originally 3x8 Claris, upgraded to 3x9, will soon be 3x10 Ultegra 6603 front end married to XT 11-36 cassette and super long cage Deore rear derailleur with Ultegra sealed bearing guide pulleys. WTB Laser V saddle, HED Ardennes+ wheelset, weighs 26lbs 4oz with Schwalbe Marathon Plus tires. Building two more bikes to add to the fleet soon: a ‘73 Raleigh-Carlton Grand Sport, and an early 2000’s Santana single seat prototype made of scandium alloy. Thanks for another great video, Andy!

Commuter flat bar roadie, fixed gear, 1x hardtail MTB for pub runs, trail dually, vintage MTBs. Always had a preference for MTB riding, just find it fun. Maybe a gravel bike is missing from the list. Road biased bikes are for business - getting there faster.

Just so I can have the opportunity to pick your brain very thoroughly ! Also, it was never my intention to offend. However like bike weight, I never give much thought to what others think, about what I say. However it is never my intention to not be respectful.

I live just up the road from Worksop England where your Raleigh Super Course was built. Love watching your videos, keep up the great work 👍🏻

LOVE your #9 bike, the Waterford. I own an R-33 and love it. Both the ride and handling are sublime. I think your bars are called mustache bars.

Guess I should've watched to the end before commenting. Another Waterford for #1! Geez I think my R-33 also uses the True Temper S-3 tubing. It is by far my lightest steel bike, but it came with a carbon fork.

I love this video! most of my favorites tend to be made by lynskey, even if they say things like salsa and litespeed on the tubes. you can never have too many!

An impressive fleet. I have a silver Mercian that looks quite a bit like your Waterford, but without the rust. I’ve owned several Bridgestones, but have yet to trip the trigger on a Rivendell.

I feel like you would also like the 70’s or early 80’s takara road bikes. I picked up a 79 a while back and the craftsmanship for the age is beautiful

On that rear coaster on the Raleigh put the tab holes on the chainstay on the same side of the brake arm. Will close that loop tighter around chainstay and look cleaner.

The pedals on the All Rounder. Called Grip Kings were designed by Grant P and built by MKS. I have the Lambda version on my Bike Friday.

Sad that Waterford is no more. I feel fortunate to have a Boulder Bicycle “all road” that was built by Waterford. It has the skinny light tubing and has a fantastic ride quality. With full Honjo fenders, a nitto front rack, Son front & White industries T11 hubs with Edelux front and Compass tail lights it weighs 25lb and it feels like 20 🏁.
