Bought this 1980s carlton grand prix from auction site a bit rough but all complete raleigh groupset weinmann brakes and levers it's nice and soild
Strange rear wheel got two sides for cog???
Nice lugs it should clean up ok happy only paid 16 pounds

Thought the rear wheel may have been a gear/fixed hub, but it doesn't look like a threaded hub. Think it's just ornamental.

Had a good look it's threaded just not seen that before maybe you had a different cog for hills and you just turned it over???

Hurman super west Germany name on wheel

That’s nice, sort of thing I’m in to. What are your plans for it?

 

[supersixone]

going to strip and clean not sure about wheels might go for 700c then going to use for work shops etc,its very lightweight so will be a good ride
