Well grabbed! Did you really need it? (I'd probably have done it too for a local bike.) Dream steal though.

Dry build complete, Raleigh name will be gone from rear mech. Need to strip and refurb everything now. It all fits though.

The irony isn't lost on me that a Dutch gentleman picks up the spelling mistakesAh yes, of course. The "RANDNNER".

Yes, wouldn't it be cool if the internet were in Dutch, instead of US English?
On a more serious note, I'm not sure it's actually a spelling mistake. I'm inclined to think it is a gairaigo, a Japanese word based on the original French.
