I have a pristine 74 Raleigh Professional with Campagnolo Nuovo Record/Cinelli/Mavic along with an excellent 83 De Rosa Professional (also known as Super Prestige) w/Campy Super Record, Mavic GL330 tubulars etc. Point of mention is I have yet to ride either after this Raleigh Professional Track hit the road. Fitted with Campagnolo Pista Group along with the amazing Fiamme Ergal rims, this sub 18lb beast is more fun than dark chocolate and red wine.
The 73-74 Raleigh Team Colors are perhaps the best of the Raleigh track options, surely more subtle and aesthetically appealing than the later team colors. The build appears to be a take on the Carlton samples. Just a great bike and a pure classic. It's interesting to see who recognizes it on the road. Some have no idea, riding by without a glance but the rare few that do have to pull up and chat.
