I have to add that the flat bars were an afterthought of one of the former owners: the stem says 'Raleigh' (huh??) and so do the rubber grips! And the brake levers are indeed Weinmann. Seller gave me the original drop bars and stem too, 'Pivo' for the bars, and 'VO' for the, very short, stem. Anyone ever heard of the brand 'VO'?
