Description
The Dutch cycling Team TI Raleigh was extremely successful from the 1970s to the 1980s. Many famous champions rode in this équipe, among them Joop Zoetemelk, Jan Raas, Gerrie Knetemann, Hennie Kuiper, Dave Lloyd, Urs Freuler, Johan van der Velde and Didi Thurau.
Success does not come without fans and admirers who are keen to identify themselves with the stars and some marketing to feed their needs.
Jerseys were sold and, naturally, very popular team coloured bikes were made by Raleigh.
Our Raleigh Team T.I. Raleigh Road Bike from the 1970s is one of these 'replicas'. The frame was built using Raleigh 531 butted tubes and was painted in the distinctive team colour pattern. As for the parts we find some of the best parts Shimano had to offer: Loads of first generation Dura Ace! A bike, checked, lubed, adjusted and good for many miles to come. Why not ride this one at L'Eroica?
