Are Raleighs (USA) built by Merida really Raleighs? I'd swear that in the mid 80's they had more Raleigh "flavour" than any coming out of the homeland - and acceptable quality as a side feature.
But what about Kent built Raleighs? B-/
Actually a lot of the RBCA bikes where actually made by Huffy . But as said they where very nice well built affordable bike as good or better than a lot of the stuff built in England.
