Wanted: Nasty beater

  • As the thread title states - anything, so long as it's a 58cm - 60cm frame.
    Anyone got anything going spare / unwanted / about to bin / etc?
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • I've got a frame from a 1975 Carlton Criterium going if you want it. Yours for a packet of hobnobs if you can collect - located near Clapham Junction. Probably not worth the choclatey ones though.

    It's a 23 inch, pretty ropey paintwork and a small ding on the non driveside chainstay where the previous owner looks like they dented it removing the BB. The forks are half chromed and previous owner has primed painted section (badly) ready for a respray.

    I've got a bag of bits to go with it. Includes new headset and BB plus loose bearings for each. Haven't counted the bearings though.

    Rear spacing is 126mm from is 95mm. Threading is 26tpi, but spares mean that shouldnd be a problem.

    Double butted steel, but I'm pretty sure it's not 531. Consensus on fansites seem to think its a proprietary Raleigh tube set. Truwell 205.

    Col.

    thanks!
