An afterthought came to me on this. When I was living in holland, occassionally I'd see some real old beater bikes, also called Concordes. I maybe saw just 3 or 4 of them. They bared absolutely no resemblance to regular Concordes, decals, logos, everything were totally different and they looked older and not particularly well made (I think the logo may even have been a plane).
I may have misremembered this, but thinking back now I recognise those black stripe decals that yours has towards the front end of the downtube, and I reckon I saw that on those Concordes.
Maybe there was some sort of relation between the newer Concordes and these, I don't know, or maybe the name was sold at some point. I can't find a picture of one on the internet, and I doubt anybody has bothered to document them, but I reckon one of the Dutch crew on here may also know what I'm talking about. Anyway, I reckon that's what you may have and someone perhaps innocently changed the decals for these ones.
Yeah, me too. To be honest I was kinda impartial to whether it was or not. Obviously it'd be nice if it was but the decals made it sufficiently Concorde for me to still have a thing for it.
