So, I was helping my mate move house yesterday and found this amongst the stuff, and he said I could take it.
1979 Carlton Pro-Am 12, seems to be in pretty good condition. Some surface rust on the chrome parts, but the deraillers and brakes move when the levers are pulled, and the bottom bracket and headset aren't siezed.
One thing you may notice from the photos, is that it has no wheels. I'm not too worried about having it period correct, and steel rims sound a bit dodgy, does anyone know if standard 700c wheels will fit on this bike? Also, from a bit of snooping on the web, apparently this is a 6 speed - will that be a freewheel or cassette? - the gears aren't indexed.
