Ken Charlson Fixie Project

Managed to pick up an old Ken Charlson frame recently and have decided to turn it into a nice fixed gear.

he is an old bike shop owner from Bolton, but dont really know any more info than that. does anyone know anything about his builds?? really like the lugs on this frame thats why i snapped it up. but unsure of the tubes used to build it.. does anyone know what it would have been made out of?? frame and forks weigh in at around 6 lbs

anyway i took it upon myself to unclutter the frame and have removed the various cable guids


loving the old grease niple on the bottom bracket. not sure if it will ever get used again though.!!!

so all ready to go to the powder coaters for a new look but undecided on what to go with. so open to your views.
