ahh..
well thank you all. if somebody could pm me the uncorrected and the corrected url, I'd appreciate it. It's damned kodak won't allow direct links--you have to create an account to view shared pictures, which I think is quite bogus.
what also interested me about the frame was the unusual (to me) chain-stay bridge, shaped like a soft-shell egg cup.
I guess I was confused as my third bike growing up in Canada (after a sears 3-speed and a purple peugeot) was an apollo capri (or maybe it was a capri apollo)--my cast iron and lead alloy steed.
no head badge or decals and the heinous paint made me think maybe it was a repaint.
anyways, cheers. I'd love to know what tubing was used, so I'll try and get in contact with the australian apollos.
