Thank you for viewing this item.

I am a qualified Bicycle Mechanic with a passion for keeping older steel bikes on the road.

You are viewing a 1958 Carlton 5 speed Road Bike. Having reserched it, I belive it to be either a Clubman or Catalina.

I acquired this bike as part of a Job lot of bicycles, before my time with the bike it has been given a full rebuild including a frame respray. I would say this was completed in the past 5 years. The paint work has been nicely done , there are a few storage marks. She has had replacement transfers .

In my ownership the bike has been checked over fully , she was running a six speed Freewheel with a 5 speed Bendix derailluer, needless to say , that set up did not work well!! I have changed to a 5 speed freewheel , swapped out the bendix for a Cyclone and fitted a new chain, Gear cable and rear brake cable.

The original Bendix derailluer is avaialble should the new owner want it .

Having completed this work the bike is now really lovely to ride with everything working as it should .

This is what you are getting.

1. Lightweight steel 22 inch frame with cyclo drop outs

2. polished alloy 27” ( 630) rims

3. Sava Kranj ( Goodyear)630x25 white wall tyres.

4. Brooks copper rivet saddle

5. Period looking White mudguards.

6. Sach Mallard 36 hole rear hub with new 5 speed freewheel.

7. Original Weinham Brakes & leavers with NOS carlton hoods.

8. Original CB alloy bar stem

9. Original or period correct Crank set with Cyclo cage pedals.

10. Suntour Clyclone derailluer ( Original Bendix avaialble on request ).

She really is a nice bike that has been sympathetically updated to ensure you enjoy your riding .

The bike will be shipped via 24 hour courier in a bike box. There will be some reassembly required by the new owner. I aim to keep this to a minimum.

Please ask any questions.
