Am I the only Raleigh Misceo owner here?

Greetings. I hope this post finds you all in good spirits. Upon doing a search, I received no results on the word "Misceo". This was surprising, in that Raleigh is a well-known, British, company. From what I gather, their product quality is, once again, improved. I am very happy with using the rigid-forked Misceo for running errands around town. Has anyone, here, even looked at this bike? Thank you, in advance, for your replies.

Nah, never heard of Raleigh. The biggest name in cycling over here was Falcon.

Edit - Just googled, seem Raleigh used to be a British brand, now made overseas. Couldn't have been all that big in their time though.

I have a Raleigh AirLite 400, I believe it used to be a massive British brand, one of the most well known but then as you say... moved overseas like the rest of modern manufacturing.

Right on. I thought they were still in Great Britain and were just doing some outsourcing. My bad. Thank you for the heads up. My mother once told me that Raleigh was one of the biggest and best in jolly old England. I know their vintage road bikes and three speeds are cherished, here, in America.

I believe it is also one of the oldest British cycling makes isn't it?
