This bike is now SOLD.
Carlton Fixed wheel bike. £40 collected.
Carlton Frame, built up as fixed.
55cm seat tube and 56cm top tube.
Frame number 285904 (On rear dropout)
The finish is possibly Acrilochrome, it has a lot of surface rust, which I've started to remove, the rear seatstays look to be in better condition.
No decals, but headtube badge is in place.
Some thoughts that it may be a Cobra when discussed here.

Running 52x18 (78 inch gear)
27" wheels, Mavic MA2 on the rear wheel which along with the drivetrain is in usable condition.
The front tyre is solid rubber! No need to worry about punctures, but be more concerned when cornering!
Front Weinmann brake with Carlton hood.
One Cotterpin nut is missing.
I've been riding this to work and back but now am using my bike with mudguards. I'm stuck for space in the shed so am selling this cheap.
A renovation project or winter hack? (Has eyes for guards.)
£40 collected. Please note now SOLD.

I'll be advertising this locally as well.
