I bought this two years ago with wrecked wheels and built it into a singlespeed.

Now I have used the wheels on another project, and would like this to go to a good home.

Its 55cm seatpost. Frame is marked Carlton, made in Worksop.
524780



I'm reluctant to post and pack, but realise I may need to.

Any thoughts on pricing?

That's a nice frame too small for me .
Got to be worth £50 surely?
@Illaveago might be worth a nudge^_^

Very nice frame, especially with the chrome ends. It’s a small size which will limit its appeal and price. I should sell the frame chainset and bits separately if you want to maximise your return.

I guess the seat post moves OK? Are the cranks TA. If they are then the extractor tool needs to be the right size.

Lovely frame with beautiful colours & decals. Highly regarded in the USA, there are bound to be people who would love this (too small for me).
Maybe the retrobike forum?
Is this available. Thanks.

55cm seat tube is pretty medium by modern standards (21 1/2"). Most people up to 6' could ride it with a suitable seatpost.

Is this still available. Thanks.
Hi PHL67

Thanks for your interest, I started to rebuild this as a drop bar bike this afternoon!

If you could collect I'm still open to selling, but I don't think I'm on for posting any more. I'm in Taunton.

PM me if you are interested,

Regards

John Riches
