Falcon San Remo pista

Sorry to jump in to this thread with a little aside.
Any idea what model this Philippe on my Ciclos Minaco might be?

The bars are Stratalite 'Aerts' pattern

I very much enjoy this bike.

a Strada crank never looks out of place - kinda like TA

Howard reports via PM that chainset is pista.

Bar fitted for latest series of images appears a good deal earlier than cycle.

Strada means road
Pista means track
The pista cranks only allow one chainring as the strada cranks allow 1-2- or 3 chainrings.
Also these are earlier cranks at 151 bcd. There is more “meat” between bolt and crank.

That must me some "wine cellar" of quality vintage fittings you have there in Wiscoterra.
