Let's hear it. Nice looking bike. White, blue decals. Cable housings through the frame. Oh, how aero is that. Sigh.

Pretty light, I know nothing... What wheels work well on this? Mine is 20".

I am building it back tonight.. Hmmm.

I still have a Raleigh Technium 450 I bought in 1989. It is a bonded aluminum tube frame, with a 6 speed Shimano SIS index shifting triple chainwheel set up.

It was and is a nice bike.

Mine is blue. It still has 27" tires and wheels. I have it on my trainer.
