I am currently stuck in Croatia and I have been looking around for a project to restore. I have found a couple of Bugatti bicycles which appear to be from the 1950s. One is here in this country and one in Great Britain. I can not find any information on the internet on these bikes. They have British type rod brakes with front truss rods with springs on the top. I am looking for any history on them. Did Bugatti make bikes on and off over the years? His first one is in a museum. It is around 1910 pictured below. I have no idea of the exact year of manufacture or of their worth. Any help greatly appreciated. I need a project so I don't go stir crazy being holed up over here.

Well I am lucky I kept up with my research other wise I may have become a pigeon. The bicycle is a model PA-02 Flying Pigeon branded with Bugatti decals. Made in China back in the 1980s but I believe they are still in production. I thought something was very funny about the springs on the top of the truss rods. I could not understand how they could function. I was right about that anyway. They are for looks only.
