I recently obtained a bike which I thought was a Raleigh RRA. But after looking at the (remaining) info, especially the serial numbers, on Retro Raleighs, I am unsure..

It has: - Nervex Pro lugs - Campag vertical drops with thickness-adding washers on insides.. - the letters CC stamped cut in bbkt shell (Carlton, right?) - full sloping, "Cinelli style" fork crown with British pattern blades. - two holes, in vertical alignment, for headbadge. - original wheels (I am pretty sure that these are the orig.) are Maillard with AVA rims. - Raleigh like stop-pip on down tube for shifter band. - seat stay tops eyes, rear drop out/stay end treatment, all look very Raleigh-like.. - No signs of there ever having been chrome on it. - serial number is G7873

I will take some pics to see if there are other clues....

If it is a RRA I then need a detailed list of the components I know Stronglight 93s and Huret jubilee but brakes bar & stem seat post?

Any help or comments would be appreciated...
