Interesting frame, not a braze on anywhere apart from downtime bottle holders which may be rivnuts.

No idea. Some sort of GT edge titanium ?

Victor seat stats tapered almost to a point where they were “shot in”. Didn’t last long as they kept breaking iirc.

And Lindrick was the name of a lug set I think

Yep, levers in that position were banned as they could not be reached from a “normal riding position” My old jubilee mech I have somewhere has a drilled pulley cage from the factory iirc.

I guess it’s a 70mm BB shell ? 1046a Italian 115 mm

Looks like a Svelto, cheap and cheerful and graced many a Carlton and Raleigh. Worked OK until someone dropped the bike sideways on it lol Spawned the lightest mech of the era and beloved of TT bods.

Kessels Molteni. Orange bikes were the fastest :)

Black on the steerer might be some of the old phosphate “bonderised” finish ?

Isn’t that Nuovo Record and not C Record. ?

If just for show then no glue needed. If you are riding then Tufo tape, two pencils and you tube :).

Nice, always liked the italienate seat stay cluster :).

Yep, bar end shifters. Sometimes the rear mech cable ran across the top tube and down the seat stay to keep It out of the mud. Often just single chainring up front with guards either side of the ring to keep the chain from bouncing off Edit. The LFGSS ad you bought it from has two single...

Carlton numbering 1968 to 1973 went a bit pants. I wonder if old stock frames ready built went Raleigh’s way for an early Europa. Falcon made some back door frames for Raleigh too when they were short, with the wrap round seat stays.

Early team Raleigh colours had a yellow head tube, included uk models. As mentioned the number may be under the seat cluster. Might start with a W as Raleigh nicked Carlton frames, usually to kick start production.

Have a look at the last couple of posts on the thread to see how nice a powder coat can look nowadays with wet paint jobs being quite spendy https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/135850/?offset=2025#comment17909195
