Old Puch...Need Info
I just found an old red and white Puch bike in the garage. I am considering starting the restore process. I have found some pictures on the web and it appears to be a Puch Brigadier. I am having trouble putting a date of manufacture on it. Is there a secret to the serial number that may reveal its manufature date? Also, is or was the Brigadier a decent bike in its day? Thanks for the help.

Does it look like this. I think it's straight 531 tubing, not too light but worth riding. This was a coworkers I helped shine up and tune. The Suntour power ratchet stem shifters are one of the better stem mounted versions.
