Alan Bikes, Italy
Road, cyclocross and gravel models listed. E-shopping commerce is listed also. A quick google search gives plenty of links for the firm, shops that carry their offerings, and marque history. Several hits here at bike forums.net.
Almost picked up a very nice Alan, from the mid70’s, at the favorite LBS here in Pensacola, a few years back. Tunes were blue anodized, all Campy Nuovo Record, MAVIC GP-4 rims. Even my size for stand over, 56cm. If I hadn’t been in the middle of building the Drillium Dude Medici Pro-Strada I’d have snapped it up. On consignment at the shop, it ended up selling at $350.00.

$350??? Sounds like a steal. I know there are a lot of people who are paranoid about the glued construction and possible failures. It doesn't bother me and I figure at this point 30-40 years down the road, if a failure was going to occur it would've happened already.
