how are these better than the original Raleigh bicycles ?

Flying Pigeons are based on mid-1940's Raleigh Designs. 28" wheels, rod-operated brakes, and often only single-speed (although 3-speed bicycles were available). Lugged steel frame is virtually bomb-proof, and these steel steeds often out-last their owners. I am currently restoring a similar bicycle made in Australia by a Sydney-based company called Speedwell. It's believed to be at least 45 years old, and as it currently wears a "UNIVERSE" badge, it is probably closer to 70 years old.

These are very durable bicycles. Millions are in circulation, most of them were passed on from the 60's and stuff.
