Yeah, actually they are both similar in size. The Trek is 58cm C-C and the Raleigh is 60cm C-C. The oversized tubes on the Trek make it look a bit smaller and I have read that the Raleigh Professionals have a geometry that leads to a long head tube. I'm not sure what that really meant but I took it at face value. Both have been very comfortable on 50+ mile rides.
