I stopped off at Mike's Bikes to talk to one of the mechanic guys, and someone thought the Team Raleigh was cool enough to take some pictures with his cell phone. I was surprised anyone took a second look at it in there, because they're the local Spesh plastic bike dealer here.
From what I remember, this one is the real deal purchased from one of the elite Raleigh squads back then.
