Hi guys,

The code on my carlton corsa is NE 4229704.

Location is on the rear of the seat tube near the post clamp. Anyone know roughly the year or where i can get info on it's year of manufacture.

Cheers

Paul

Tell a lie, I found the serial number on the back of the seat tube near the top, as follows

NE4229704.

Make any sense to anyone?!

I'm not a lover of fighting, but kicking the shit into a cocky little thief really appeals to me. I just bet you were slightly gutted you weren't there to lend a hand with the 'bringing of pain'!!!

Gutted Ned, i'm still waiting to bump into the twat that nicked my old raleigh. I wasn't in the know about fixed gear back then, but it would make a sweet conversion now!! I'm sure you'll see him again, and chase the dog down!!

Cool mate, I'll have a measure tomorrow. No number on the BB though!

I want to run 700c's so this sounds like it's totally possible as they are smaller aren't they?!!?!

Only running a front brake.

Cheers

Paul

Cheers very much Chris, Ill check the bb. No forks with it I'm afraid!! Whats the overall diameter of a 700c with a tyre on approx (i know it will vary on the tyre) any one know?

Cheers!

Hi guys,

just got hold of a carlton corsa and setting up for a fixed gear build. Bought just as a frame, and am not sure what size rims to go for. (what were on it originally??)

The stickers were pretty much gone on the top tube apart from 'corsa' on it's own, no other name after it. Hope you can help me out!!

Cheers

Paul

just dont put the pin right out the back and onto the floor like my mate did, cos that is kantish to get back in again, especially with a my dads vintage knackered out chain splitter! The phrase 'get back in there you little bastard' was used quite freely.

Sweet, this is very helpful, does anyone know how to re-rivet a badge back on? what type of rivet etc?

anyone here live near the airpoint apartments, or in them?!!! (bedminster)

Hi bristol crew. I just joined the group, hope thats ok!! It was the closest i could find to bridgwater!! Just starting a carlton fixed rebuild, but when its done i'm gonna pop up to bristol to get some city riding in!!

See you around maybe!!!

I'm from bridgwater in somerset. Haven't seen a fixie yet...!

i'd post a pic of my face but i haven't figured out how yet, my last ride got nicked, and my new ride isn't built yet...

big mallet and adjustable spanner...

Hi everyone, I'm new here too, trying to get my post count up and ask sensible questions at the same time!!! Just wondered if anyone has found a decent candy paint in a rattle can?

monty python clip is genius!!

hi guys, i'm new here, and was looking for carlton stuff. Just got a corsa frame, and wanted to know if 700c wheels will go in it?

Cheers!!
