    details are as follows

    FRAME: Carlton Ten 1970s Reynolds 531. 60cm seat tube , 56cm top tube.Original paintwork is a bit rough with surface rust here and there but in my opinion still quite good for a 1970s jobie. The frameset is structurally fine. No cracks, no rust perforations, no seized bits or any other issues.

    a bit more on the frameset can be found here:
