Thank you for sharing this. I have a 531c Raleigh in Team Panasonic colors, albeit not a SBDU frame. Still, a lot of details including lug types and fastback seatstays match mine. But my bb is not Cinelli, it has a welding seam and is French threaded. I will contact Neil, the curator if the site, to see if I stir his interest with my odd frame.

...there's a Yahoo group for these bikes. TI_RALEIGH_TEAM_PROS@yahoogroups.com

Pretty sure Neil is on it. As are some other knowledgeable people

Thanks for the info/link. Took pictures of mine last night to provide another data-point to Neil. After refreshing my memory as to the serial number, I learned that he had apparently seen my frame before - and his blog refers to it as being made from 753. Hoping to hear back from him bout it.

That would be a happy surprise!

Mind posting a couple of photos? I don't remember seeing yours.

Love the name! I actually did see this on the link, very cool. I -think - the drop outs being drilled was far more common on 753, although I remember someone showing a counter example when I once stated "only" 753.
