New price £40

Located Hornchurch area (off M25)

This is my buddy's late 70s Carlton, minus wheels. He couldn't remember the model of frame but he knows it wasn't a complete bike when he bought it from EG Bates.

Used as a fixie for commuting up to ten years ago and then shoved in a shed without a wash ! We spent a night pulling out decent gear recently but after several beers couldnt be arsed to wash anything so it still has authentic East London road grolly on it.
Unshrunk pictures available if you pm me your email address. Its a nicer colour in the flesh

60cm frame, 531, frame number WB 8003048

Looks like a clubman as I had one like this back in 78

Yep, Looks like a Clubman. Lesser frames had the front fork light boss.

Also came in a fetching eau-de-nil. Looks like a SR chainset :) Fifty quid is a good price..
 
Re:

As an aside, some of you may recall I had a buddy run down in a hit and run last year. Well the physical scars are healed but he just cant face getting on a road bike again. This is one bike he knows he will never ride again.
