Raleigh Vektar Restoration – Part 1 – The arrival
Summary
The Raleigh Vektar Restoration – Part 1 documents acquiring two Raleigh Vektar bikes and launching a restoration project. It highlights the bike's 1980s embedded electronics (a computer, radio, and sound effects) and outlines a staged plan (cleaning, testing electronics, de-yellowing plastics, painting the frame) along with photos and notes on sourcing manuals. The post emphasizes community input and promises future updates as the project progresses.
