Any Raleigh Team Professional owners out there?
I love the Raleigh Team Professional bikes. I picked one up for my daughter for cheap this fall and would love to get one for myself. Her bike was painted all white with no decals. There was no way to tell that it was a Team Professional until I saw the serial number. It looks to be a 1984 with Reynolds 753 steel.
If anyone out there has a Team Professional I would like to hear from you. If anyone wants to sell their Team Professional I would be interested. Need a 58cm frame or larger. Thanks.

I have a '79 SBDU team pro I'm working on getting on the road - one of the blue/black framesets that were a special order item. I'll post some pics once I get it all back together. There is a Yahoo group you can join, that has a registry and gallery. Lots of good info there:

Size is right, steel is right. Just need to find one for myself.

Thanks for the tool comment. It is a headtube reamer/facer but with a soft aluminium washer under the cutter it doubles as a headset press.

Late 80's SBDU Team Raleigh, Reynolds 753r, 60cm Campagnolo Super Record, with C-Record Retrofriction Shifters. The scourge of Sunday Group rides.

I don't think I ever saw one with the 'ears' on the lower peice to keep it from turning, they must have been broken off or removed by someone.
