RALEIGH-CARLTON PROFESSIONAL TRACK

I have just finished restoring this very

early and I think quite rare Carlton/Raleigh track frame set.

Judging by the frame number C2720, I would hazard a guess

that this would be from about 1968, 
but could stand to be corrected on this.

It has a couple of unusual features, most obviously the chromed 
and drilled seat stays and the drilled drop outs.

I had the paint mixed to match the original Raleigh

"flamboyant" pearl deep red and pearl blue.

I have tried matching this colour before, but have always been a
 bit disappointed, however this time the guys at Topaz paints

really nailed it, and it looks perfect( thanks guys).

A very nice frame set all over.
