...wishing I could find a 24.5" RRA. Best looking bike Raleigh ever made, IMNSHO.
Heh... I had an International, but wanted the RRA frame. Plus the Campy, so swapped frames with a friend who wanted something more laid back. I could probably still get the original parts though Don't see many of these come up for sale (22.5" one like mine a couple of months ago). If I run across one I'll let you know.
