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

I have been asked what is included for the price
Frameset
Brakes
Rack
Seatpost
Frame pump
Wheels and shifters and mechs I was going to keep but will sell for extra if needed
Thanks Stephen

Hey what is the tyre clearance on this frame? Really tempted!

Hi
I have had a lot of people ask what is the tyre clearance on this I’m sure I’ve used 35mm with mudguards,I have tried to take some photos with 32mm gravelkings without mudguards hope it helps

My experience of bikes of that vintage is that you should be able to fit 32's and mudguards without any problems. 38's , depending on your rim, might be a challenge

I'm interested in this frame set. Can you message me please - cant figure out how to pm you 😖

Wow is that a bargain or what!

I love mine,by far and away the best touring bike I've owned.

Mine is my pink 'FGSS' tailored for me by Tom Board in 1990

Asking price £150 offered Stephen. Can you contact me when you get a chance to discuss postage. Regards, Brian.
