Akisu made frame and forks, good entry level race of its time. Looks pretty much like most of the important parts are original, love the comfy seat

. Levers have also been replaced as it should have either Tech 2 or Tech 3 copies

Cheers for the replies i got the bike at a local market from a guy who sells bike parts missed a Raleigh mag burner by 2 weeks only £15 but was happy i got this.Are the levers still available i presume ebay will be the place to buy, is the seat std and i must say its very comfy.
the guy i got it of said quite a few people wanted the seat post is there anything special about them (fluted alloy)?

If you have any age related pics or a site link i would be very grateful.

Cheers PaulT
