thanks for sharing. my first "racing" bike was a 1958 raleigh lenton grand prix. benelux derailleurs. front was shifted by a rod attached to the seat tube. one of the most popular "out of the box racers" back then. i remember shoveling snow and mowing lawns all year to buy that bike. $112 complete with tool kit, rear saddle bag, brooks saddle, weinman brakes and large flange hubs.
