That's me being suspicious and that's the way I approach Ebay, with a big bucket of salt.
I'm not suggesting that it's a fake, but if you had a bike of that quality, specially made for you at THE best workshop in the country and you were also a Super Record nut, would you have it set up the way he has ?
If he's riding it that way, then it's obviously too small for him and I doubt that Raleigh would have made a bike like that too small for the buyer at any time. I can't see any reference to him saying that he had it made for him anywhere in the description though.
