Handlebars Capella lugs

Steering stem

 Shimano Lark SS

The front forks, wheels and 6-speed freewheel are not original, but could be from a late 70's Carlton or Raleigh Carlton.

GB Maes handlebars, GB stem and Weinmann levers with Carlton hoods are original.

Derailleur is a Shimano Lark SS, original was probably a Huret. Williams chainwheel and cranks stamped ZF which equates to 1965. Non original pedals. No braze-ons for 10 gears.

There is a Catalina decal on the seat tube, pretty faded.
