Update -Lounging Lizard and Raleigh Pioneer

Hi

I have had to put the lizard on hold just now,currently working on  a Raleight Pioneer action sport as my main commute bike, its a lovely bikr, steel with 700c tyres, she should fly.

She needed new wheels, the front i have sourced easily but the rear came with a quick relese which i was planning on changing to solid axle but that seems to after talking to a few different mechanincs that is a PITA so beware if your going down this route, quick release won't generate enough tensionto ensure good chain posistion, you really need a nutted axle.

I had an episode of delight trying to remove the rear mudguard from this bike but that's for another day!

Apart from the wheels i putting on a single piece crankset, regreasing headset and bottom bracket, buying a lock and she should be good to go

More soon
