Yeah that has to be a 22.5", I've been working extensively on my 21.5" Competition recently and can see quite the size difference. That bike is freaking gorgeous though, GLWS.

Ok. I jacked up the measurement. I was not going to the center of the BB. SO you all are correct, it is a 22.5" Frame.

Hello vintage bike connoisseurs,
I would love some input on the value of this 1974 Raleigh International (see pictures). I bought it off CL for a pretty penny and am trying to determine if it was a good deal.
23 1/2 inch Reynolds 531 db frame with chrome Nervex lugs, chrome fork tips, seatstay and chainstay ends built at Raleigh's Carlton Workshop in September 1974. Rare Campagnolo Nuevo Record triple chainring, Campy Rally wide range rear derailieur, Campy wide flange hubs with Wolber rims and Continental Ultra Sport tires. Instead of the standard Weinmann center pull brakes, Campagnolo side pulls, Vintage Concor saddle with Campy seat post and Campy pedals. Engraved GB bars and stem, cork tape and cane creek hoods.
