Was he the original owner from new? Any more history about the bike 🤔 Anything stamped on the dropout or is it just flaking paint.

With a badly stamped O it looks more like SO42 and swap the SB4 around and we have a Brockenhurst in the New Forest post code SO42 4SB 🤔

Looking a the lugs, seat stays and dropouts the frame looks much older than the decals, looks like an over paint job, is there a serial number on the left rear dropout 🤔

The real deal.... Bernard's 753 Aero bike 👍

Here's a 76 frame in the Team livery 👍

Here's the rest of the catalogue. Can you post a picture of the underside of the bottom bracket, if it has an SB or SC prefix frame number then it would be a custom built frame 👍

Great to see the Witcomb is still going strong, sounds like you've had some great adventures. Loving the new paint and looking forward to seeing it built up in it's new incarnation. Any pictures of the seat lug clamp before and after 👍

Olympic Cycles was owned and run by Granville Horton, I've got his Raleigh SBDU 753 Dynaflite. The frames by Paul are very nicely built, he was a Reynolds 753 approved builder. I was watching your frame on eBay... you got a cracking deal 👍 Thread 'Olympic Cycles Nottingham...any memories..'...

Looks like a good quality repaint for tens years ago as the correct decals have been used, pretty much all of the restorations I've seen going back ten years in the Team livery have the wrong seat tube decals, do you know who painted it? Some more pics and frame number would be great, for a 76-8...

Down tube..?? more like seat tube on the fake, with the correct seat tube decal for under a tenner it could have been a far more convincing fake 🤔 https://hlloydcycles.com/collections/raleigh/products/raleigh-team-professional-seat-tube-panel?variant=39275809079385

In theory it should be worth more than a fake...😱 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285764069074?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=gLHME6M1TEi&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=hiIhcVWxQfO&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=MORE

Looks like a late 80's Raleigh Flyer or similar Raleigh entry level racing bike 👍

I order these online for £19.99 and free in-store collection 👍 https://www.decathlon.co.uk/p/700x25-vittoria-strada-tubular-tyre-black-tan/_/R-p-X8595046?mc=8595046

I've got the foil headbadge and single ring but missing the Time Trial on the top tube... maybe it's a wet weather time trial machine, no skin suit required.. just go naked under a cape...🌨️ 😉

Sorry, must have missed one of the pictures of the forks, I can see that they are Vitus dropouts. Another possibility with no headbadge is a BSA Competition 🤔

Sadly not mine but was surprised at how many variations I spotted at the Retro Raleigh & Chopper show at Billing a couple of years ago. I showed my 1967 RSW MK1 and SBDU 753 Dynaflite👍

Strangely enough they did do a BSA Chopper... Raleigh did a fair bit of rebranding for world markets 👍

I wanted a Chopper for Christmas... something got lost in translation...🤔

Frame number puts it at December 1982 Nottingham built. Looks like the same frame as the Raleigh Competition 12, Rapide 12 or the Carlton Pro-Am 12. Check for evidence of holes behind the headbadge decal or if filled look inside the head tube...no evidence of holes would suggest it's was a...
