I have a stock 1967 Carlton Flyer "rescue" bike, except it was missing its front wheel when I got it. Anyway, it's a very similar year and model and it was/is nearly stock.

- Frame SN# is 1967 (Bnnnn) - 151 BCD crankset, 44-52 - Record front derailleur with a cable-stop - Record steel rear derailleur - 5-speed freewheel, I think it's a TDC. - Record downtube shifters with cadmium (very dark) plates - 'No Record' campagnolo hubs, dated 1967 with steel rims. - Record 'No <C>' steel headset (this is typical, imho, on 60's bikes) - Weinmann 610 brakes with vertically serratted QRs; riveted caliper pivots - Steel Record pedals with toe-strap loops - brooks regular pro saddle (I don't think team pro was out yet ...) - GB 'red 90' stem with raised bump for the 'R-nut' expander bolt. and drilled for a centerpull brake.
