It has to be the Raleigh 853 for me. Superb condition, totally period but still 100% practical to go and bang some miles on. I love that paint finish - very rare to see one like that.

hi, just sent you a PM, i've got one somewhere if i can find it. PM me back and i'll dig it out if you are interested.

I loved the original syncros stuff. i think it looked ok, but it was expensive and therefore me me at the time unobtainable - thus desirable. maybe thats it - its like a Porsche i would love one, but i'll never afford one.
