Although it was 31 years ago, I remember looking at a Raleigh Pro which was equipped with a Team Pro saddle. I remember it well as I could not afford (college days) the Pro but bought the RRA which was displayed alongside the Pro.

By the way, the RRA was $375.00, while the Pro was nearly $200 more at $560.00. The Pro was full Campagnolo and the components looked so nice.............

Yes, it is a nice day for a ride (at least in the northeast).
