Hello Folks,
I hope somebody here can help me with the identification of my recently resurrected old Raleigh.
What I know:
Frame and forks are badged 531c with a red main triangle, black forks and rear triangle.
Frame No suggest special projects (ex Worksop) build WH7000664.
Complete Compagnolo group set. Hubs, front rear mechs and shifters, brakes and levers, seat post.
Hubs are badged RECORD.
Cinelli Bars
Marvic MA-40 rims
Marvic pedals
What I don't know.
What version is this colurs suggest team USA but no badging to say this?
What group set is this?
Was it a Raleigh build to this spec?
I got it from a friend in about '94 as a road training bike but never really used it. He had it as his training bike and I think got it from a fellow club member (what club and when I am not sure).
Anyway I have dug it out of the back of the cellar at my parents and simply added a new seat (old one long gone), removed the gears, shortened the chain added new tyres and tubes and will run it as a single speed fun bike to go on rides with my family etc.
Any comments or observations welcome and some all important pics below.
Cheers,
AJ
