German bicycles
Hi I am seeking more information on a bicycle that is from Western Germany. I believe it is a muscle bike. On the back of the seat, is a metal stamp marked "Denteld" Please advise if you have any information regarding background/value. Also, have another bike, needing information on style/make/model/value. The only information I have on this bike is the "PERSONS" stamp on the metal plate. Thanks in advance! The pictures will not post, please email me for pics.

German bicycles are rare in the U.S., although I have seen a Rickert or two. Austrian bikes from Steyr-Daimler-Puch, sold under various marques including Sears, AustroDaimler, Puch, and Steyr, are far more common here.
Classicrendezvous.com may not help you with a muscle bike, but it is a treasure trove of information on vintage road bikes, including a few from Germany.
