Help, I picked up this beauty at a local goodwill, had original seat too, can anyone tell me something about it? Such as age, value, history etc.

Looks 60s, foreign made, not much collector interest or value but would make a nice rider with a good service. V/r Shawn

Interesting brake lever set up. It could be from the mid 50's and later. Italian bicycle

Very nice, simple utilitarian design for every day use in the towns of Europe. By the graphics I would guess 70's but that's purely a guess. Cool wings on the front fender for extra splash protection.Enclosed single speed drive train to keep your leg, pants, skirt, dress clean and dirt out. And the internal routing of the rear brake cable keeps it tucked out of the way and is very stylish. (I love Goodwill!) The chainguard and brake lever set up are cool as well. A good servicing and a few new parts will have you visiting all the thrift stores in Dothan in style for many trouble free years! Enjoy!
