Tel, thanks for the reply.
Not riden yet just raised the saddle and lowered bars.
Frame is FM1 whatever that means? Light bike though.
Will go for a spin tomorrow, I'll have to change the pedals to spd-sl though

Rims are Mavic 192NE 1#MONTE/OEM
Close but no cigar for me then.
Personally I like the RX100 groupset, aesthetically I think it really hits the mark. The FM1 frames had a few deriatives all were good and Dura-Ace would not be out of place hung from it, the Koga Miyata FullPro had this set up (FM1 + DA).
You done very well there Ian I can't wait for you to ride it

Thanks Tel, you can still have a cigar mate.
Which is better then? Raleigh 531c race or FM1 Koga? the Koga is in better condition but a few years newer.
I will sell one, but which?
Are they worth about the same?
Sell the Raleigh and spend some money on Dura for the Koga?
Will I sleep tonight?

More pictures.
Tel, the tyres are tubulars and need replacing.
I'm going for spin this morning, the pedals are compatable with my spd-sl cleats!
Only a rear brake but don't use the front much anyway!
