Hi Guys, ive had a few vintage carltons. And ive come accross the Cylone name on other bikes before, but ive just picked up a very late Worksop carlton as a beater and its got sticky labels on it as a "carlton Cyclone". Its a low rent model with basic 5 speed spec but noone seems to have heard of this model. Its really pretty in mint metalic blue and although other models were famous like the Criterium from that period, theyve all got painted logos etc.i will try to add a couple of photos but i dont have the bucket/flicking thingy, anyone else had one.Quite heavy so i think the frames made of roofing lead but the rides smooth as a double glazing salesman.
