My reco; unless you just HAVE to use a Vitus guide, replace it with a Shimano or similar unit, even if that means tapping a blind hole or even drilling AND tapping a new hole to get it aligned. They last far longer and are far easier to find, even come in choice of color: black, blue, or purple (but not silver-gray AFAIK) |

Haha we'll see. My current paid internship is about to end sooner than expected so I'll be holding off on any fun purchases until I find something new. As long as someone who respects the bike gets it rather than some college kid who runs it into the ground I'll be happy.

I'd say get it. I've had three of the 555SL versions of these bikes because I love the paint scheme. I have never seen on made in 753 ever. Can't be many around. I wonder what size it really is because no way that's 50CM frame.
Looks to be 57-60 or so from the pics? |

753 Raleigh ?

I’ve had a couple Raleigh 753 frames in the traditional paint schemes, so maybe this is just different paint. I suppose the serial number would solve this.

Maybe, but there's two catalog pages where the bike is a near 100% match. If I get a chance to buy it or at least take a look at it I'll report back to the forum to confirm/deny that these 753 Raleighs are out there to be found.

Interesting shifters though. Sachs Rival. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...1d9bd36d8.jpeg It’s filthy too, and is that a bit of a cracked paint at the headlug? |

It’s filthy too, and is that a bit of a cracked paint at the headlug? But since it was used with (more fuggly) "triathlete bars" the paint defect on downtube (if that's what you ref) could be just from sweat, but another indicator to any potential buyer: "caveat emptor, dude!" |
