I saw a Team Raleigh 753 bike that had the water bottle braze-ons ripped out
it. Two gaping holes where they used to be and still being raced! You
definitely have to be careful with 753. If a frame is SL gauge or heavier, go
ahead and lean on it. I don't think you would see Mr. Cannibal leaning on his
KL Hour Record bike, even though he reportedly still has one of them and
rides it out to coffee at the local Belgian cafe near his house.
