(I posted this as a new thread - cant find it so here goes again...)
In another thread the subject was unappreciated bikes/brands and I threw in a couple of scandinavian bikes. Here are some swedes without bigger recognition abroad; 1) Champion bikes were a small scale production. Frames made by Torpado. On this one Super record gruppo. Certain details made in alu in Sweden. 2) Rex bikes are a brand that go way back to the 1920`s. Mainly producer of everyday bikes but made in effort in the 80`s to make a competetive and affordable racing/training bike. Frame by Rossin/Falck tubing. Triomphe components.

Top it off with my upgraded Monark -75 and Crescent 319 -79.
EDIT; ...eh, I found my lost thread...
