Re: mission
Great to hear you enjoy your mission. So many Dyna-Tech and other Raleigh Special Products out there.
People are finally admiting that we made some fantastic stuff. Just a shame that more people didn't buy them at the time, if they had we might still be there.

My Dynatech Mission is the first brand new bike I ever bought back in early '91.
Loved it then, love it even more now.
I been working (and spending some cash and more) on a GT LTS DH from '97, added hope disc front, full BETD bearings and still looking (and spending) etc, and all this long while I've done nowt to the Mission save replace a rear mech and the odd chain.
But the thought came to me today, if I had to choose between them which would it be?
You would maybe think that would be a hard choice?
Naahhhhh!
On the Mission I dont just get a buzz 10% of the time like on the LTS, every minute I'm out on it is special.
Well named Raleigh Special Division (RIP).
Btw, am I the ONLY ONLY one on retrobike with a Mission?
