i got one of those whilst serving in germany. Its was great i ended up chucking the frame a few years ago as one of the welds went. I loved the head badge of the pig in a checked police style cap lol

see quite a few over here in germany (prehaps not that surprising). normally you’ll see a bike with nice bits attached, big nobbly tyres and think “nice bike” till you see the kick-down stand attached to the chainstay.

lots of people here have a bike. many will go and buy a €600-1200 bike and only ever pootle to the shops on it.

oh and the english tag lines for each bike, they are for the germans, not us.

englisch is koool, ja

OK, so it’s just me that’s really old then! 😉

They were at one time imported into the UK and sold at Mycycles in Malvern.
They had a trade stand at the Malvern Hills Classic in 91.
They even, briefly, had a racing team in the UK.
