At first I was excited to see the announcement that they were re-issuing Raleigh Roadsters. I was pretty disappointed when I saw the bikes though- looks just like a re-branded modern comfort bicycle.

I do sort of like the handlebars on them though- remind of the Airflo bars of the old Hiawathas.

But you can still get an original Raleigh 3 speed for much less than the cost of a new roadster, so it's still best to go true vintage I think, rather than new.
