From the pages you posted I like this bike a lot and it's a good size (54cm).

I know RIH bikes were mostly made with Reynolds 531 tubes but this one doesn't have any stickers. And I found an old post on this forum with an identical bike and someone saying it is hi-ten, so if it's true it's not so good right (at least in comparison to chromoly) right?
