Which one would you keep?

I'd keep the Holdsworth.... but only because I really like the colour

Just curious as Camyoldy has some levers with the older style hoods for £200 AFAIK.

Yeah the photos don't do the colour justice. The orange is stunning in the flesh and looks amazing with all the shiny bits bolted onto it.

Its funny, its completely the opposite on LFGSS. Everyone on there says I should keep the Holdsworth

which one do you prefer riding?

quite.

I would do some more miles on the Raleigh and see how you get on with it. No point selling a bike you know works for you for one that might not.

I too love the colour of the holdsworth.

Assuming most of the"members"of LGFSS are Londoners that might be the reason they'd prefer the Holdsworth.

However, I'm being more than a little fussy - I'm not sure your Holdsworth is a Professional and I'd like to ask you why you refer to the Raleigh as a"Team Pro"?

They both look nice though - whatever you call them. I personally have a soft spot for both makes and if you had a Holdsworth Professional I'd keep that over the Raleigh...if it's money then keep the one you'd get the least for. Or, as other posters have said keep the one you like.

I have a soft spot for both makes at the top end of their ranges.

I did a long ride on it today, and as said in the first post, cant really split them in terms of ride.

The Holdsworth is definately a pro, did lots of research. I called the Raleigh a team pro as thats what others were calling it. But if thats wrong whats it called? team replica it says in the brochure i think
