Not sure why I bought it really. I love the colour scheme and they were so popular back in the '80s I thought it needed rescuing. I plan on using it for my first time trial event come April with Ultegra SPD pedals fitted, of course. I'll then return back to my more manly '85 Team Replica (Raleigh, of course).
Is yours the five or ten speed version?

I'd love to see a closeup view of the bike, that's an interesting colour fade there.
