Funnily enough the only bmx Raleigh released that was better was the team burner. That was the made to measure, special order frame built in Nottingham by raleigh's special development unit.

Yes, that's what I have on mine, that price is utter cobblers though IMO.
Mine were £27 but they were pitted quite badly, they needed to be copper plated before rechrome, all in all that came to around £60.
The stamping couldn't be saved sadly but the bars came out mint.
