Tell me about Carrera Phantom (identify this bike)
I got this frame years ago and I'm finally thinking about doing something with it, but mainly I'm just curious.
Googling Carrera bicycles turns up Italian bike maker that was founded in the late 80s, but this frame looks lower-end than what they make. There's also a brand called Carrera that's carried by the British chain Halfords. I don't think it's the same as the Italian brand. Neither site has any mention of a "Phantom" model.
Does anyone know anything about this bike or where it came from?
I took a few pictures, but I don't see how to post them from my phone. I'll try to remember to post them from my computer tonight.
