Thank you for posting this. It brings back some good memories. My first "10-speed" in 1963 was a Monark that I bought from a neighbor. Mine was gold colored and had the Benelux shifters with the red, white, and blue adjusting knobs. I believe that [MENTION=333224]juvela[/MENTION] has some knowledge of these bikes.
