Joel's 1973 Raleigh Grand Prix Restoration and Upgrade!

Last Spring Shannon found this Raleigh Grand Prix and we spent a very nice Saturday in Central Wisconsin exploring and picking it up.  It struck me how nice the decals where for a 1973 Grand Prix.  

I didn't really know how I wanted to proceed with the Grand Prix.  It had the beautiful decals but the derailleurs and shift levers where the cheap plastic Simplex components that would break almost instantly.  I thought about it for a couple months, I thought about finding a nice set of Sun Tour components from the same era.  I thought about putting modern parts on it.  I thought about finding even older components and making it a tribute to the Golden Era of Cycle Touring.  In the end I decided to make it a single speed with some wide and aggressive tires.  That is the direction I headed.

I got all the way to the point of mocking up new wheels with the wide and aggressive tires and test road it up and down the road.  Then one day Joel was visiting the shop and saw the frame and fell in love with it like I did.  That is when the build totally changed.

The post for the Raleigh will be in two parts.  The original part of the build and then the change.  This is the first part below.

The Grand Prix looked in pretty good shape to start but did not look as good as it actually was.  I think the seat and foam handlebar tape did not help the look.

I broke the Grand Prix down to the frame and then started the cleaning process.  The frame before looks very descent to stat with but still looked dull and dirty and just relatively unimpressive.  That is when the Grand Prix unveiled it's surprise!

I cleaned the frame and started working through the polishing grits.  I worked slowly and then the first wipe of the polishing residue reviled the beautifully perfect green paint! The paint was just stunning and was perfectly new!  Old paint can be polished out and look amazing and liquid and smooth as glass but still lack that perfect newness, this Grand Prix has that perfect newness!  It is so rare!  Then the best thing showed up, those nice decals to start are perfect!! Just perfect!! The frame is absolutely perfect!  The paint is the best paint I have ever seen for a frame over 40 years old!

The headset and bottom bracket where in ok starting shape.  I put the pieces through the crock pot and then worked through the polishing wheels.  The headset and bottom bracket polished perfect!  With new bearings and grease the headset and bottom bracket spin perfectly too!

The handlebars do not look that great to start, I think it is the old foam handlebar tape that makes them look bad.  I cut the foam tape off, broke down all the pieces and then worked through the polishing wheels.  The stem turned out amazing!! Just amazing and perfect!!  The handlebars turned out the same way!!  I love this stuff!!

 One of the crank cotter pins was frozen in place.  I had to drill the crank cotter pin out.  I real pain .  With the crank removed I cleaned all the pieces and worked through the polishing wheels.  The crank turned out very nicely.  I assembled the crank as a single speed crank.  Installed the crank looked great with the green perfect paint!

The brake calipers are center pull calipers.  I like center pull calipers like these, they usually restore beautifully and have plenty of clearance for tires.  The best part is center pull brake calipers actually work compared the the same era side pull brake calipers.  The brake calipers did not look in the greatest shape when I started.  I broke the calipers down and cleaned all the pieces and then worked through the polishing wheels.  The pieces of the brake calipers seemed to be polishing nicely as I worked and then I assembled the brake calipers.  While assembling the calipers the pieces transformed from nicely polished pieces to the most beautiful center pull brake calipers I have ever seen!  I love this stuff!!!

 At this time I test fit the wheels I built up for the Grand Prix with 40 mm tires.  The wheels and tires made the Grand Prix look like a beast!!  I loved it!!

 With the wheels test fit it was time to wire the Grand Prix.  I thought about the cable housing color for the Grand Prix for a long time.  I thought white like the Grand Prix had originally.  I then tried the dark gray, that was not quite right.  The next I tried a light silver and it was nice but then it hit me.  The Gold metallic braided cable!  Perfect! Amazing!!  Best combination of color I have ever seen!!  It makes the whole bike!!

This is where Joel saw the Grand Prix on his visit to the shop and an even better build was formulated.  See soon!


The original wheels are going to be used but not the original tires.  The wheels have very nice alloy hubs and steel rims.  Steel rims are not idea but the bike will be rarely ridden in the rain.  I broke the wheel hubs down and started the cleaning and polishing process.  The wheel hubs turned out fantastic and the rims look great!  With new bearings and grease the wheels spin beautifully!  When the Panaracer tires are installed the wheels will be perfect!

Now the real fun starts!  Joel was able to find Campagnolo parts from a 1973 Raleigh Professional that has moved on to a different life and set up.  The components are in beautiful shape so the main thing I will be doing is cleaning and lubricating.  Its always a dilemma for me when it comes to parts like these.  They are valuable parts and have collector value, I could make them highly polished and and very bright but I think that losses the character. So mainly I gave all the parts a very deep cleaning and very very light hand polishing along with lubricating when needed.

The derailleur are beautiful.  I gave them a deep cleaning and some time in the sonic cleaners.  Just a little hand polishing to even the surface out.  Lubricated and ready to go!  The Raleigh doesn't have a derailleur hanger built into the rear drop out so I had to take a Suntour derailleur hanger and then cut it with a jeweler's saw to fit the unique shape of a Campagnolo derailleur. Over all I am very happy how the derailleurs turned out!

The front derailleur I used the power polishing wheel to polish the chrome.  I think that made a nice difference.  I also used the polishing wheel for the small hardware that was chrome.

The shift levers are so classic! I polished the chrome pieces with the polishing wheels.  The rest lightly by hand.  I also disassembled the shift levers to clean out the old grease and apply new grease. It definitely improved the function of the levers.

I am a Brooks saddle nut but I think the Brooks saddle is the best part of the components.  The saddle is in great shape for the age which is amazing.  Some proof hide and the saddle is beautiful!  Such nice patina!!

 There really is no crank as beautiful as a Campy crank.  The crank is in great shape.  It actually fought a little on the cleaning process but in the end it turned out great!  Just a little light hand polishing and its perfect and it looks incredible with that polished Bronze Green paint!!

 The handlebars, stem and brake levers are beautiful.  The handlebars are GB with some incredible engravings.  The Stem is a TTT.  One of the brake lever hoods had a small tear in it.  I tried to glue it together but it just wouldn't hold.  Joel was able to source NOS hoods that came from Italy and where installed after the bike was complete.  The stem I hand polished, it was more then just light polishing, I put a lot of time into hand polishing the stem and handlebars.  I think the time was worth it!  It removed a lot of oxidation.  Installed the handlebars, stem and brake levers look amazing!  I love this stuff!!

I chose the Ritchey synthetic leather brown handlebar tape to match the saddle.  It looks fantastic but hasn't been holding up as well as it normally does.  Installed the tape looks amazing or I should say the bike looks even more amazing.

I installed a light color gold chain that looked great with the theme of the Gran Prix but the chain was just to wide to work with the Campy front derailleur.  I like to install wider chains on bicycles from this era because the wider chain actually works better with the spacing of the rear cogs and the derailleurs from this era but just doesn't seem to work with campy.

 Last I installed the pedals.  Is there a more beautiful pedal then a black and alloy Campy pedal??


The Raleigh Grand Prix took a good deal of tuning and fine tuning but once I got it the Grand Prix rides beautifully!  There is nothing quite like the ride of a bicycle from this era when it is back to new!! Throw in the Campagnolo components and it is amazing!

Best part of the Grand Prix is the looks!!  All I can say is CLASSIC!!  I don't know if it gets better, a color you don't see today, leather, gold, chrome, alloy, gum wall! Just Awesome!!!

I didn't even come close to imagining the way the Grand Prix came out when I first found it with the rotted tires, bad Simplex parts and foam handlebar tape but now I think it may be the best Grand Prix ever!!
