Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Modern Raleigh International?

So I was perusing the Raleigh site the other day to kill some time and noticed that the Raleigh International frame is still in production - albeit with 853 instead of 531 tubing. According to Sheldon Brown, this was a pretty legendary frame back in the day: https://www.sheldonbrown.com/retroral...rnational.html

Has anyone any experience with this? Not that I'm looking to get one, just curious to know what Raleigh is like compared to their heyday of yore.
