So my stepson owed me £90 for like the last eight months, so I levered this 1970s Carlton Cobra frame from him by way of paying off his debt. Wheels from ebay (£30) All the other parts were knocking around in the garage.

It's a mash-up of Cycle Speedway bikes and British 'Tracker' bikes from the sixties with a little Grasstrack thrown in for good measure. I hate the front lamp bracket so someone on Cycle Chat Forum (a Scotsman predictably) suggested I fit a bottle opener. Needs a little lower gearing and the gold glitter grips are 100% wrong!
