Pegasus is a brand and this one found by Googling appears to have a similar head badge.

interesting how the headset, bulge-formed head and fork crown bear a resemblance to those of styria...

would be interesting to check the steerer to see if it is a 26.0mm...

bikes of the old east-bloc often show strong similarities to particular examples from west of the curtain.

another polish badge which has come through my workshop is zzr.

Your reply indicates cautious agreement. My last remark was meant to be humorous and I hope it was taken as such. The mock affront was meant to amuse. Of course I guessed. New old bikes turn up all the time and everyone who loves this stuff loves to see them, whether we know anything about them or not.
