Paul, Congratulations on your emergence from the shadows. I have four Raleighs and have looked at them wondering about the brazing or lack of. I take it there must be some signs of movement, cracked paint at lug, rust, etc., to tip one off that there's a problem? I have been blessed with what appear to be solid frames and alignment which is within reason.(though only one has been seen by a framebuilder)
