My apologies up it goes....

Here is how you can tell, notice the brake cable on the top tube , it as a full outer , the SB as open brake cables, the stem is Cinelli 1A the other is a 1R, Cinelli 66 on the Henk 64 on the SB5990. Wheels are built on Gp4s where as SB5990 is MX18 all other parts are period correct for 1983

 

[Raleighmad]

Also alfreda Binda white toe straps where as Red on the other. Only small differences

 

[Markynag]

Names on bikes don't match , ie pinerello , vitus

Something's muddled up here ...

I'm intrigued, if Raleighmad's glorious TI Raleigh is up for Feb rBoTM then how is it that it's also up for 2012 rBoTY? I'm assuming it's the same bike.

Ooof! rBoTM thread Fail

Sorry names/ models un-muddled.

agentorange - yes I thought the same thing and omitted it from the poll but I was corrected by Raleigh Mad, see posts above.

Just for the record. Not to try to vote you for mine. As suggested by someone earlier I did "update" (or is it to be called "downdate") last saturday my Caballero with '70 MAFAC's including the levers which I already had, but not mounted yet. To make it more time related. Very pleased that I could buy some on marktplaats.nl the equavalent of ebay in the Netherlands. Now I am waiting to buy a nice leather saddle as Brooks or Fujita (which I had once in the '70s). And anothe TA steel bottlecage which I cannot but anywhere anymore.
