Nice bike. I haven't touched it or cleaned it. 1 owner, I have the original receipt with the original catalog. The bike isn't totally stock as the fenders are missing, no chainguard, no pump, and not the original rubber. Paints in good shape - not perfect as there are some scratches. It definitely needs some cleaning and polishing.
Carlton 531 lugged frame. Huret Jubilee der's. Stronglight cranks. I also have the original ratrap pedals with the half clip Christophe's.
I am willing to sell as a whole bike $550 (shipping and boxing included to anywhere in the lower 48 states).
Or part it out as necessary. I like the Carlton frame, and it fits. I have plans in my head for a clubman, and this would fit the bill but I'll never get around to it

*************************

Might be interested if it's still intact. You got rid of the Bluemels' somewhere along the way? what kind of tires now? is it set up as a 5-speed or a 10? what's the freewheel ratio? what kind of saddle & bars? how scratched up is it?

Still intact. Still up on the wall... I don't know where the bluemels went. Meant to make it a rider but never got around to it. Its set up as a 10 speed (original).
I am pretty sure the freewheel is a 14-28. 52t big ring. not sure on the inner.
Saddle is a brooks springer B66 with a Pivo stem. Not sure on the bar though. No markings that I can see (but it is up on the wall).
Tires are a cheap 27" knobby style kenda gumwall. Nothing special. But they hold air.
The bike is a one owner, but I am not including me. I picked it up from a friend (original owner) but never rode it and just hung it on the wall.
The bike has scratches and is not perfect. It has good paint though, and there are not too many scratches. Its nice, but not exceptional. Hard to describe.

***
This model was something of an oddity, it was a touring-style frame in the 70's before such frame-types became more common during the next decade - Raleigh never bothered to push it & it was dropped from their lineup; some of them were sold as 5-speeds for commuter bikes but were too expensive compared to the standard 3-speed commuters, so they didn't get a big response... actually had one once few years back (long gone now), so have ridden one, and wouldn't mind picking up another one for old times sake
