The 531-frame Raleigh Super Course and Gran Sport models are ideal commuter/tourers, if you want to build a singlespeed, a fixie, or an internal-geared machine, for these models have plain stamped rear dropouts without derailer hangers. You can get a nice Super Course frame pretty cheap as well - and some of them have Nervex lugs to boot.

If a derailer-geared machine is what you have in mind, look no farther then the Nottingham-made, all-black Raleigh Competitions.

Unfortunately, every single one of these Raleighs require clamp-on cable stops. You can always use Campagnolo stops, of course...
