88 Raleigh Technium

I bought this 1988 Raleigh Technium for $30 (a bargain!) and haven't decided to sell it yet. I would make it my regular rider but its about 2 inches too small for me. I can make it work but will probably end up selling it in the end. Its the lightest bike I've owned and rides beautifully. I put the brooks seat on there and probably wont sell the seat with the bike. changed the bars to bullhorns, removed front brake, tuned up back brake, remove front de-railer, replaced front three gears with one 46 tooth cog. Need simple brake grip then I'm done and will decide to sell it or not. will fit a girl or a short guy beautifully. I wish it would have been just a little bit bigger.
