The beautiful and underrated (unknown?). Tour de suisse. This was my first road bike and I wish I still had it. It was done in by an Audi A4.

It is my opinion that a sunburst orange colour is the best a bicycle can have. I'm happy to have one orange bike, a Rossin Ghibli:

~'74 AE8 at the RBF spa for some TLC - some grease, cables, new jockey wheel, rear wheel and freewheel. Still need some new tires - Paselas? Looking forward to getting it back.

My 1973 World Voyageur - It's pretty close to NOS.

(Yes, I know, wrong saddle, missing toe clips, tires have been changed at some point many years ago, probably in the mid-1980s. Miles on the original dealer-installed clicker-type odometer are just under 100.)

Much too small for me, so this is also hanging as wall-art in the man-cave.

If question is in reference to my 1973 Voyageur? The answer is: The rear DR is a Shimano Crane GS D-510
