Hey all, I was kicking around the idea of buying a steel road bike - maybe from the 80's or 90's for a project. I'd like something that would still ride well, that I could use on a regular basis. I go on training rides over a lot of chip seal, and it beats the crap out of me on my all aluminum bike. I really envy this one guy I ride with that has a 80's Pinny.

I saw a Raleigh 80's grand prix w/555sl tubing - are those worth looking at?
