Hey all! I just purchased a batavus monte carlo touring bicycle at a yard sale. It looks to be from the early to mid 1970's. Shifts great, looks to have a new chain, frame is perfect. It was clearly well loved. It will be my new commuter-I start law school in the fall. My colnago (also steel frame) will be brought out rarely, from what I am told
Tires are original, cracking at the sides and made in Holland. Anyone know the size? I tried to search on the web w/no luck. Also, anyone have any info re: batavus? I know they used to make mopeds-did not know they made bicycles!
Thanks for your help.
