I had one in white and thought it was the most amazing thing as a kid totally loved it. Ancient bike as im 35 now lol.

Reminds me of my old Raleigh Grifter which I still have in the garage. It weighed a ton and was impossible to do wheelies on etc, but I loved the look of it and the motorbike style gear change. As a kid I modded it with a DIY digital speedometer, lights, sirens and other stuff. The last time I rode it was in the summer of 1985 and it was way too small for me even then.

it's actually worth a small fortune now today ! had the white version , stepped up from the 16" wheeled raleigh wildcat , the one with the thumb button for sfx , recently sold a raliegh burner from 1984 for 470£ on ebay !
kinda wish i had kept it now , but am gonna use the funds to restore a 80's skyway i have in the loft .

I think that by boxing day the pcb would be given beer.

Awesome. I had this in White. Sadly i never had the console working and this is the first time since the 80's iv seen what it should have done. I wish I still had it but my mother gave it away!!!!

I wanted one of them as a kid but we didnt have enough money. one of my friends had one and it was fucking class. I still want one

Agreed about the design, but have to say it now reminds me of a 2 wheel Mini Metro!! BMX wil boxes on it, I remember a wee guy down the street was dead set on getting one and he was 'gonna ride by and program it to play didi di di di dididi di di di di' (Dukes of Hazzard horn). Shame it would have sounded like a transistor radio!! Funnily enough, the bike never appeared.......
