I just got this from UPS and put it together while watching the Ryder cup. First ride today. I’ll need to learn about the aBenelux derailleur because right now it’s a 6 speed. It’s a little small for me but these don’t come around too often in this shape. Circa 1953 Hetchins Experto Crede. I’ll post some more pics in the International Bikes thread.

Below shows the neon sign in the background on Borsari’s corner building. Nino Borsari was an cycling champion who won a gold medal at the 1932 summer Olympics in Los Angeles. In 1934 he travelled to Australia to compete in the Centenary 1000 mile which was a week long event to mark the centenary of Victoria. He opened a bike store in 1942 in Lygon Street Carlton.
