Has a movable handle bar stem, not the fixed stem, I think that's an Australian thing because it seem's a bit late for change over. I replaced the front tyre and took it for a spin.Ultra-Violet is my favourite chopper colour. - comments: A Raleigh Chopper in every sense except on the down tube there is a large sticker that say's DOMINATOR. Somebody said that was because Raleigh didn't own the rights to the name Chopper in Australia but I'm not sure if that's an urban myth.
