These are such underappreciated frames.
The 708 tubeset has full length longitudinal ribs inside the tubes - similar to Columbus TSX only the ribs are not spiral.Top tube is 1" 1/8th.
They were very well designed and very carefully put together at Raleigh Special Products Division .
Because of the profile of the tubing only the very best frame builders were allowed to braze them together.
They ride so well both unloaded and full of touring kit.
I love mine,by far and away the best touring bike I've owned.
Anyone thinking of buying one ,really should.
Good luck with the sale
