I will be outbid very quickly, I just think they're great and would love to have one mainly for the historical side.

I am in the shorty 52cm club. Would be interested in getting my mits on one of these! Also I would be willing to take a F&F only to save on maint costs and builds.

Bugger off you lot, nothing to see here.

Thanks for all the thoughts and suggestions and information regarding this.

I will take the plan I have formulated with your input to our committee and hope to be in a position to start some thing more definite by the end of next week.

Regards Allister

stick to your cannondales dammit, dammit

dibs 53 - Will go nicely with my G.O.D built panasonic roadie. I'll keep an eye out when they get listed

Good luck with the sale, nice collection, sure you'll raise the money you need!

Normally a 58 but I suppose I could drop to 57...

How does 80s Ti compare to nowadays Ti?

the Ti doesn't stand for Titanium.

The Raleigh frames are made from Reynolds 531 C, steel forks, stays and butted frame tubes.

Ti Raleigh part comes from the TI Group plc (formerly Tube Investments) which was a holding company for specialised http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering companies, Raleigh Industries joined the group in 1960 and this was reflected in the "Ti Raleigh" decals of the top of the range SBDU (special bicycle development unit) frames.

They are not Ti as in titanium tubing.

This is a Ti Raleigh !

Fucking hell, wondered why this was in the track forum. Never looked as I have no interest whatsoever in fishing, Raleigh track frames on the other hand..

mmm, tempted

55 please! But I know I could never be able to keep up in the bidding war against some of those highly paid hipsters trolling this forum. No offense...

I have the first batch of 4 bare frames and forks in the house now,

they are :

SB4636 54.5cm
SB4637 54.5cm
SB4638 52.0cm
SB4634 61.0cm

I will check with Velocio about the practicalities of his suggestion for an auction to sell the frames and what I would need to do to make it work out in every ones best interests.

^Excellent. There's a 52cm . And christmas is coming!

Let's get it on.

^^^ dibs, dibs, dibs and dibs

Them kids don't know what they are missing out on, would love to turn up to a taster session and get handed one of these...

I'd love one of these, but I think I'd be bang in trouble if I bought one.
I've already been told that I have enough bikes and don't need another.
Which, while true, is rather missing the point.

^^ Lust.. Appeals to Dutchies like me too with the TI Raleigh squad.. Although way to young to have actually experienced that.. Good luck! This is for a good cause..
