Raleigh/Robin Hood did offer a "Lenton Sports" to the US market c. 1961-62 but it was not in anyway the same machine as the "real" Lenton Sports being made of 2030 steel only and a cheap entry level "racer" with Huret derailleur or AW hub. To further confuse things (and this stuff can make your head spin!), there was also a Robin Hood version of the Lenton Sports/Clubman of 1946 wonderfully called The Sherwood Arrow but this, too, was in 2030 steel and not Reynolds 531.
