I am feeling that color. A 722TS in that color would be sweet.
That seatpost/saddle combo looks a little strange, not hating cuz it looks like a Supercorsa. Just looks funny to me.

Na I was over 36h hubs. Went with a 28h nova tech in rear and a Bike Hub Store 20h in front.
I ended up replacing everything on the frame over the last 3 months. Unfortunately the new bars are too narrow and I kind of fell in love with the mustache bars I was riding while this bike was down and out, so I'm tempted to buy a new set of those in 31.8 for this bike, even though I'm sure everyone will hate on them being on a build like this

Lovely builds in here guys (and lady). I am looking to pick up a 721 soon and build it up but have a question of sizing.
This is the current bike I have in a sz 55
https://www.raleighusa.com/archive/20...back-alley-12/
After looking at retro-gressions website, and the geo, I am wondering if I should get the 53 or 55 721. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Do you know for a fact that your current bike fits you?

You're between a 53 and a 51(54.6 TT), depending on a few things.
Use this fit calc, and post your results, to get you on the right frame.

Don't rush through the measurements, or it'll be junk. Follow the instructions if you want accurate results.

I'm pretty sure they're under the clear coat.
Also, that blood orange color will only be available at CityGrounds.

Purple is already one of their production colors for this year.
Special edition RG pink 725s would be nice, though.

The 725 was offered in raw a few years ago.

They are bringing back the 722TS? (non heritage edition). Wonder if there will be any geo changes.
The hurricane is pretty nice too. Only because chacon rides one, though.
