I think you had the same issue with the Stella pics I posted a couple of weeks ago. We may have to all pitch in for ya and upgrade that Commodore 64 you're using!

Note again the complete lack of braze-ons.

wrt dating -

in looking at a good number of MCB 319/320 cycles online it would appear that the final year for use of this track style crown with them was ~1968.

here is a Cresecnt 320 dated that year -

319/320 bikes produced following that year came with the Vagner flat topped crown.

beginning about 1970 the stays grew beefier and the geometry changed to produce toeclip overlap.

the blue with white or dark red trim was the house/team colour for Monark badged machines.

the orange with white trim was the colour for Crescent badged product.

a third, not frequently encountered badge, was also produced with the name Skandia. had the opportunity to view one of these in person. its transfers were nearly identical to those of Monark but with the different name. it was orange with white trim and looked to date from the early 1970's. built with NERVEX Professional lugset and Vagner crown.

in the early 1970's Monark 319/320 bicycles were produced for export which were made also in white with blue trim and in orange with white trim.
