Cute, a 501 carlton that's not a million miles away from me, that's not the original fork though is it?

Yep, original fork:smile:. The Kermesse kept the fully sloping all chrome fork throughout its life. The early ones had a fork boss iirc and the later ones lost the boss and had the mudguard eyes removed.

The Kermesse came in lagoon blue when launched but the clowns at Raleigh changed the colour scheme to the blue you see above, crying shame as lagoon blue, white and chrome were a killer combination.....

As with all Carlton's they rode very nicely

Must just be my eyes again then. Shame it's just a tad too big for me, I seem to be drawn to blue for some reason, I currently own three blue ones!

Edit: oh and I also like it cos it's a Carlton of course!
