If they're the black delrin (Simplex?) thingies there's a SLIGHT chance I may have a pair, and I'd be happy to pass them along IF so
Hi - they are an oddball critter . the frame has holes in top tube for reputed to be white plastic pop in clips .
Neve seen this set up on any other Carlton .
Have a 1960s photo somewhere showing them from a distance on a race frame of the time .
