1985 Raleigh Competition

No denying the time warp condition.

The frame deserves better equipment though; otherwise just an interesting collectors item.

Roadking.

I've just bought a frame and forks the same as this, in 21".

It came with original headset, seatpin, mechs, everything else i've fitted slightly lighter bits and it weighs 9.5kg - lighter than i expected! I might get it down nearer to 9kg with better saddle, seatpost, pedals and sprocket. I bought a dura ace 7400 sprocket claiming to be 330g which is actually 530g, must be made of lead?
