ACTUAL SIZES

Due to the 70° seat angle, Carlton frames feel shorter than their size :

- Carlton 20.6″ feels like a 20.3″/20.4″ frame, with more room between handlebar and seat

- Carlton 21.0″ feels like a 20.7″/20.8″ frame, with more room between handlebar and seat

- Carlton 21.3″ feels like a 21.0″/21.1″ frame, with more room between handlebar and seat

PEG USE

Better to ride a Carlton frame with Superstar Micropegs, instead of real pegs. Peg use on a Carlton frame will cancel the warranty. Have a look at the Cooper frame if you want to ride pegs
