A few years ago fell into my hands this pair of old bicycles. (24 x 3/8 inch of wheels)
They were in terrible conditions, rust everywhere, the wheels and the handlebars not spin at all.
In my free time I put them in conditions, making them run properly. (Change some axles, tyres, handlebars, tubes, etc)
Before applying new paint, this two bikes had decals of "PRIETO", a shop in a village 80 km from my city where you could rent bicycles and use them for going around town. PRIETO was the surname of the man who started this business, importing bikes from england and france for rent them.
And so the story ends, now my question: anyone know the brand of this bike ?? (I refer to the frame and fork)
BIKES










Now a few details.
*Of the first bike. Rear Wheel (40 holes): freewheel raleigh, raleigh hub, rim Dunlop. Front Wheel (32 Holes): raleigh hub, rim Dunlop. I only put new handlebars, pedals, saddle and chain. I believe the others parts are Original.
Sorry for my poor english.
Cheers.
The bikes have 24 x 3/8 inch wheels. ( Boys bike )
PS: unfortunately all people who maybe know ( about the bikes) in my city are dead, This guy PRIETO has been dead for over 40 years.
