Raleigh Venture-Bike

Post by DikTracy6000 »

Doc suggested easy bike rides may be good rehab for my ailing right knee. Bought a Raleigh Venture 3.0 last Saturday. So far I love this bike. XL frame, large-padded seat with a shock abs. on seat stem and shocks on forks. High quality tig welds on aicrcraft aluminum frame. Built for road, but will double as trail rider if I want to. Sits upright, best brakes I've ever had on a bike. My last bike Purch. over 25 years ago, was a Schwinn Continental which at the time was TOL. 21 gears(Shimano) shifts very smoothly. Knee's already feeling better. Paid a little over $300 new.
