1981 Carlton Corsair Reynolds 531

callum_t

Dirt Disciple
Full Reynolds 531 Frame - 60cm ST 57cm TT

27 x 1 1/4 '' Wheels and Tyres (100mm Front / 120? mm Rear Spacing)

Front tyre is perfectly usable, Rear is usable but could do with replacing.

I have managed to fit 700c Wheels with 100mm / 126mm Spacing easily. The Brake calipers also have enough drop to safely take a 700c wheel and still use brakes!

Has had all old brake cables and gear changed for modern low friction inners and outers.

Brand New Bar Tape

Brand New Brake Blocks.

Brand New on-one seatpost so the bike is ready for modern railed saddles.

Bike Sold without pedals.

Considering the bikes age, condition and the reputation Carlton has, I think the bike is worth around £250 - Price Drop £150 ONO

I have specifically tried my 700c wheels and there was enough travel on the pads to take them and brake safely on the rim surface.
