Raleigh revive Aero Pro Burner in chrome for 35th anniversary, and launch two limited edition balance bikes
Raleigh are celebrating 35 years of the Aero Pro Burner BMX by recreating it with the classic deep chrome frameset, and have also launched two retro-themed balance bikes for budding BMXers too.
Only 550 of the limited edition Aero Pro Burners will be released, each with individually numbered frames, and feature modern components that make it appear as similar to the 80's version as possible. With the original Burner made even more popular by featuring in E.T., Raleigh say the recent spike in popularity has in part been inspired by sci-fi series Stranger Things. The bikes costs £600 and will be available in Autumn; however you can pre-register to get your hands on one via Raleigh's website now.
Raleigh's limited edition Baby Burner has a lightweight aluminium frame with comfy handlebars to suit an upright riding position for your nippers. It has the same colour scheme as the original Burner, "reflecting the iconic original" so say Raleigh.
Likewise they've also recreated the Sherwood hybrid as a balance bike with tan tyres, saddle and bars, a light alloy frame and a mini wicker basket on the front. Both the Sherwood and Burner balance bikes are £120 and you can pre-register for them now.
Arriving at road.cc in 2017 via 220 Triathlon Magazine, Jack dipped his toe in most jobs on the site and over at eBikeTips before being named the new editor of road.cc in 2020, much to his surprise. His cycling life began during his students days, when he cobbled together a few hundred quid off the back of a hard winter selling hats (long story) and bought his first road bike - a Trek 1.1 that was quickly relegated to winter steed, before it was sadly pinched a few years later. Creatively replacing it with a Trek 1.2, Jack mostly rides this bike around local cycle paths nowadays, but when he wants to get the racer out and be competitive his preferred events are time trials, sportives, triathlons and pogo sticking - the latter being another long story.
And then people wonder why so many die in hit and run incidents every year.

I had read that you can get away with reusing a shimano link, and have reused one a couple of times. I just took the chain off for a thorough clean...
Bravo

Tactical mistake by the Daleks there. Being restricted to the cycle lanes they found they couldn't conquer a single street, never mind the world....

Yes, he should be allowed to keep going with his career, but that doesn't mean a team should hire him.
Except bypasses lead to more traffic in general and volumes on the smaller bypassed road grows. Induced demand....
