Greetings campers and Anglo-phobes/-philes

Looks very much like 60s vintage Carlton Flyers, even down to the bridge across the seat stays for the rear center-pull brake cable housing stop. Most of the Flyers I've seen had triangular cutouts in the lugs and sides of the fork crown. Serial number is K 7084. There was a similar Dunelt on ebay a few years ago (yellow/gold with white & blue accents) that also had a Carlton style serial number. K 5836, which would make them 62, 63-ish in Carlton-world according to one serial number year code.

Ya have to wonder....... Does anybody know more?
