*Now Karma*. 1990 Carrera Krakatoa. *Gone*.

[brocklanders023]

For sale I have this 1990 Carrera Krakatoa f+f. Not the most bling frame in the world but it's in pretty good nick and has a nice splatter paint job on top of the black. It originally came fitted with Shimano 300LX so guess the rrp would have been around £300 bitd?

Anyway, it'd build up into a half decent pub/hack bike so may be of use to someone. Seat tube is 19.5" c to t and the top tube is 22" c to c.

Just want it out the way now so free to anyone who wants it I can post but this would obviously add £12 or so. PM me for more details.

will the drop-outs work on a fixed?

My dad had one just like it!

I had one. It metamorphosised into the Dave Yates, one part at a time.

Think the drop-outs are horizontal but will check when I get home in the morning.

Offers always welcome as I just want rid of it to clear some space.

I had one of these. Loved it.

Heavier than a tank, took some real gip

Then it died catastrophically over Owd Betts in Lancs one Sunday in the disused quarry with my pals.

Snapped the top tube.

Halfords were quick to give my dad a full refund as long as we didn't talk about the fact you could now see my elbow joint through the hole I made coming off.

Them were the days.

Addition: drop outs aren't horizontal, nor vertical. Somewhere in between.

It'll be a damn fast single speed. Just difficult to stop.

Good luck with the sale: thanks for the nostalgia trip. My elbow is throbbing even now
