Identifying Frame
Hi , everyone which brand this bicycle with a “bögli” on the rear tubes and a pantograph on the fork as shown is below ?

SPQR makes it probably from Rome, but those lug cutouts were a style used by Giovanni Losa AFAIK, and he was not in Rome, so this may be one of the MANY he built for others who re-branded his work.
BTW he built very, very high quality frames! Pleas post additional pix of the bottom of the Bottom Bracket shell and seat stay caps, plus of the brake bridge, if it has 'features', since that might confirm if this is one of Losa's. He built for a LOT of other brands (such as Cinelli) and they show up as "house-brands" all over Italy but also in Switzerland and Germany |

DOH! I knew I had seen that "tri-foil leaf" mark before:
it's Rauler So Losa built for Rauler, too! Add yet another to his long list of clients https://classicrendezvous.com/countr.../italy/rauler/ |

If you can, could you post a picture of the underside of the bottom bracket and the seat tube pinch area?
If Losa then there would likely be a heart shaped drilling at the bottom of the seat tube pinch slot and an hour glass shape under the bottom bracket. He changed his stays and fork treatment at the drops here and there. Sometimes flattened and crisp across, sometimes more ornate. |
