Steve Neago reveals how, why and when Huffy used the Raleigh name to market cycles in the USA
Some people may mistakenly believe that the American cycle manufacturer Huffy (Huffman) purchased TI Raleigh (USA) Inc. during the early 1980s. I can assure you this was not so! Huffy merely licensed the use of the Raleigh trade name during 1982-85 and did not purchase nor buy Raleigh USA.
You may ask how do I know and is this true? During 1983-1986 I lived close to the Huffy USA worldwide headquarters in Miamisburg, Ohio and sometimes stopped in to talk to the Raleigh marketing staff at Huffy. I dabble at collecting vintage Raleigh frames and during the early 1980s, I tried to purchase replacement decals for several frames that I owned, which led me to Huffy USA for replacements. Needless to say, I did not find the vintage decals I was seeking after several visits, but I had extensive talks with Huffy marketing staff regarding their franchise of the Raleigh name in the USA at that time. As a former Raleigh bike shop mechanic, this interested me and in 1983 I wrote a college paper that detailed Huffy USA marketing plans for use of the Raleigh franchise in the USA.
Huffy did not buy the USA operations of Raleigh because Raleigh International did not want to sell these rights, only franchise the use of the company name. At that time, Raleigh International seemed to want to cash in on the use the easily recognized Raleigh name and logo by franchising its use for bicycles, toys, clothing, and even sunglasses! As a result, there are NO USA documents in local, state, or federal government records that document a sale of Raleigh in the USA to Huffy. I have also performed a extensive USA federal trademark search of changes to ownership of the Raleigh logos and have found that Raleigh never transferred nor assigned any Raleigh logos to Huffy. Finally, my talks with the Huffy staff in 1983 revealed that the Huffy/Raleigh franchise marriage was intended to be a temporary experiment because it served multiple short term needs for both companies.
As an overview, Huffy in 1983 was seen as a mass-merchandiser of mid to lower quality bikes to large retail store chains in the USA. However, Huffy had little market presence in the local bike shop market and no quality higher end bikes to sell. By selling higher-priced bikes possibly through large retailer chains, Huffy believed they could earn more incremental sales and profits. Huffy sought out Raleigh (I believe this first contact was made at a tradeshow?) because Huffy thought that high end sales of bikes were becoming popular and they needed more of a market presence (buying local bike shop market share?) to capitalize on this trend. As an experiment, Huffy thought that franchising the Raleigh name would also allow them to expand Huffy sales to local bike shops where they did not have large market sales. Huffy experimented with manufacturing higher end frames and bikes with the Raleigh logo in Japan for possible expanded USA distribution. Raleigh seemed to want to franchise the Raleigh name through a number of avenues to raise additional capital for the parent company as worldwide sales started to decline.
The Raleigh franchise sales results were not what Huffy anticipated. Although Raleigh experienced some name recognition because the Raleigh USA and World Cycling Teams won prestigious victories in 1983-85, this did not translate into increased Raleigh sales in the USA. The associated costs of sponsoring the Raleigh Team USA (I have talked to 1983-85 Raleigh USA Team Coach Mike Fatka) and the growing popularity of BMX bikes finally convinced Huffy that high end bike sales were not going to increase. BMX users did not have a marketing migration path that guided them to higher end road frames. The major Huffy employee responsible for Huffy franchising the Raleigh logo left the company. Consequently, Huffy declined to expand advertising or sales support of Raleigh to enhance its sales. Huffy let the Raleigh franchise contract expire in 1985.

cpx 601
Salut,
Je viens de faire l'aquisition du cpx601 d'alex
Du coup, je cherche le plus possible de pieces d'origine (monobloc, spider black, 44 dents chrome, collier de selle, potence (le tout en Sugino) et le reste: fourche, selle viscount (ou autre aero), guidon type cw noir.....
Il me faudrai aussi les mousses (introuvables) ou les vecto. pour les refaire et aussi les sticks de la fourche.
Si vous avez quoi que ce soit qui va dessus, contactez moi, svp
J'ai aussi une pettite question pour les spécialistes:
Pourquoi les tubes arrieres sur mon cpx sont-ils coupés net au niveau des pattes arriere alors que sur ceux que j'ai vu ils sont arrondis (comme sur le raleigh si-dessous)
Y a t'il eu plusieurs modèles ???
Merci d'avance

Un 501 fumé
Probablement, un 602 car il était monté en 1/3 8 eme... (restais que la roue avant... )
Aprés pour les différentes forme de pattes il peut y avoir des variantes chez les Taiwanais... (surtout pour un vélo vendu sous trois marques différentes !)
La finition fumée à bien résisté, il est plus clean que le 601 que j'avais récupére fin 84 d'occase....
J'ai récupéré aussi un 501 ça n'a rien avoir....

Un 601 avec des 1/3"8 eme....Bobby vas nous sortir la fiche technique ! 
Un vélo hors catalogue qui fut assez peu diffusé....(comme le cruiser d'ailleur)
Des pubs dans Bicross Mag et fiche technique existent...
Pas un modéle expert !
Celui que tu as était prété par un magasin à un fille qui roulait bien. Le soucis c'est qu"elle à arreter le Bicross juste aprés avoir toucher le vélo ! donc le vélo est retourné dans le magasin et est resté démonter jusqu'à ce que je le récupére l'an dernier.
Un Raleigh Team Aero Pro j'ai c'est le meme topo, il était destiné à un co sponsor et finalement il à jamais rouler et servi de banque de piéce.
Je ne connais aucun autre Team Aero Pro en France d'ailleurs. (acheté en France)
Pour le co sponsor les deux seuls Pro Burner qu'il y à eu dans mon coin l'ont été de cette maniére. Pour cela une participation de la moitié du prix d'achat du vélo étais demander au pilote et le vélo lui appartenait.
(Fallait rouler fort !)
Un bon deal, pour le prix d'un Ultra Burner un pote à eu un Pro Burner en 1983 avec en plus l'équipement Raleigh qui vas avec.
Fin de la digression.
