I bought this bike for 95$ recently. I read what i could find about falcons online but I am still not sure what model or year this bike is. Any information or links would be appreciated. Thanks

I'd guess its a 70s bike and from the parts mix they have been upgraded. I believe that 531 sticker means straight guage Reynolds throughout.

FWIW, TA triple cranks are bringing 100. or so on ebay these days...

Should be a nice bike.

I agree that it's likely from the 70s or at least those Weinmann Symetric brakes are from that era. Have you had a look at this page?
