There is also a version of the Sports floating about that is very similar to the LTD-3 but not labeled as such (possibly a Sports Standard?). I have one, no hub date

but it does have a small sticker at the bottom of the seat tube just above the bb that says it was made under license in Malaysia. It also has Endrick pattern rims which are lighter than the Westricks and don't have the substantial center ridge as is common on most Raleighs.
