I am the proud new owner of a '74 Raleigh Sports with new wheels, crank, bb, and hub. It is not the fastest bike I've ever owned, nor is it even as comfortable as my old touring frame, but it's the best combination of comfort and handling I've experienced for urban riding. I love it so much I got an old Raleigh-built '68 Dunelt to convert to fixed-gear. Now, I just hope to one day own a chrome one with no modifications whatsoever. Might settle for a Tourist, just because it is gigantic.
