Not sure what this has to do with the original post?

Thank you Leon! I will pass this information along to my girlfriend. I'm sure she will enjoy hearing about it.

EDIT: I forwarded it to her and she said "That is so COOL!!!!" Now she wants to find a Pink Witch bike. LOL So is this the Pink Witch (a Triumph made by Raleigh)?

You are most welcome. You may notice that the "Jackie" in the ad with the Pink Witch was none other than a very young Jackie Collins, actress, book author, and TV celeb.

Again, the Pink Witch was primarily aimed at American girls. It was wayyy overkill for European bicycles and kids. They were sold coast-to-coast in the USA. I could never understand why American collectors never even noticed any of the foreign American bicycle imitators.

Triumph was Triumph and then became part of Raleigh and on and on.

So my girlfriend has not one, but TWO Pink Lady bicycles made in West Germany. She found the first one (on the right) about 5 years ago and brought it back to life though it was missing many original parts. The one on the left we just picked up. It'll need a total going over but looks to be very complete. Can't seem to find anything online about these. Any information would be much appreciated. Thanks!

View attachment 1632355ne about these bikes. Is anyone familiar with them? Would love any information you may have on these bikes.

Hello: I had a Pink Lady bike & my brother had the Black Knight mid-1960’s purchased at R & S Strauss Auto Stores. We loved these bikes. Not sure who they were made by - not Schwinn I know that. Would love to have one today.
