• What is that? a Crystal? it looks somewhat like a Tecnos but without the Gilco tube profile.

    My choice would be Veloflex Masters, gumwall, 25mm, superb ride.

    Rubinos are an odd range of tyres, some can be not too bad but others are like tractor tyres slow and heavy.

    Actually, I'm not sure now. It has Crystal tubing, but labelled as a Competition with Art Decor paint. Can't seem to find any other Competitions with Crystal tubing, they usually had Thron ?

    Anyhoo, put black bar tape on and saddle/tyres from the parts bin and quite like it. Black shows off the frame quite nicely.

    I don't think the 'Competition' bit means that much. I have an art deco Master that says 'competition' and another one that doesn't have that paint job or tag but it is exactly the same model.

    My guess is it is a 'Crystal' with perhaps a factory specified custom paint job. Also the external rear brake cable guides convinces me.
