My friend Carlton 88 is correct.

This is my bike, and the bars are one of the various similar shapes called North Road bars.

Do you know why they are called "North Road" bars? Maybe there was some event conducted on the Great North Road?

My 1993 Dave Marsh after a quick makeover - new bar tape, cables, brake pads. Everything greased for winter, just the Cruds to fit.

Do you ride down Brooklands Road weekday mornings? I see a cracking Peugeot on there that's very like yours.

Yes, that's me (I can't imagine there's too many bikes like mine in the UK) - "Hello". What are you riding? Give me a wave!

I've managed to roughly date the bike to 1977 from the head badge. But unsure of frame tubing. Any suggestions please.

Just a late addition to the thread.
Here's my Carlton Kermesse, Currently languishing in the shed after the 'head on' episode. But hopefully making a return to tarmac soon...

Brilliant Selle Italia SL saddle BTW.
(Sorry about the saddlebag by the way! Ugly looking spud!).

And that's the front wheel of my Raleigh Merlin. In need of TLC, new cranks and cotterpins.
Maybe a pic of that later.

Aravis 631 frame secondhand from ebay also sold by Hewitt and Pearsons so guessing it's made in some far eastern factory and stickered up as per the customers specs.
Stripped using a blowtorch and wire brush (Nitromors didn't touch the original paint) and primed and given a couple of coats of satin black.
Frame weighs 2kg (didn't weight the forks guessing 1kg) going to put most of the bits from my commuter onto this. will be used for commuting, audax, light touring and hoping it will give a more comfortable ride than my current alu bike. Maybe any improvements will be phsycological doesn't really matter if it doesn't work out then I'll start saving for some Ti. So far it's cost me £140 hopefully will recoup some of that when I sell the current frame and fork.
