My dream bike when I was 13 years old, instead I had the visually similar Europa.

Hello,
so the seat tube deformation - what does that mean? It can't take a seat post? Or just that deform is dangerous for riding? -

Europas were so much cooler than Athena’s.
According to that brochure the Europa weighed 12.3kg and a had bottom gear of 42-24. I lived on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors no wonder my knees are wrecked
Hello
Quite a nice frame, full 531 very light and nimble, has mudguard eyelets. You can see the original here https://bikalog.org/api/view/Raleigh/1983/raleigh-1983-racers.pdf
It has been resprayed in team Raleigh colours.
Unfortunately the seat tube got deformed by a child seat clamp (which also took the decal off). I was actually riding it for a while until I noticed without any issues, but obviously this is not recommended.
