The Raleigh Leicester E presents itself in a very nice frame, with high value components, and the proven Panasonic motor, and with with everything at a very reasonable cost value ratio. The bike can be purchased at every Raleigh dealer. The consistently high value bike components leave behind a good impression; the bike went through the test period without any problems. Besides minimal details, the bike is similarly built like the Kalkhoff Aguttu, the Victoria Frankfurt, and the Rixe Bordeaux G8.
