A former member of the Raleigh team told me that they didn't rode and liked the Brooks but used other saddles and had to reinstall the Brooks whenever official photos were taken. My 1976 753 Team Pro (which might be a real team bike, serial number "KH176", found in netherlands) has Cinelli bars and stem.
