I'm glad you said that. The Carlton was the cheapest to buy when new, by a long way. The Tony Oliver I specifically ordered in a low-key, single colour with no maker's decals (other than the tiny one on the head tube) to deter thievery - having already had one very nice touring bike nicked.
The Raleigh Randonneur is in just as good condition as the Carlton, if not better - see below. Sadly, it just doesn't get used, so come next Spring, I may decide to sell it. How many touring bikes does one man need?
