I make a call for international riders of road bikes made by MCB (Monark & Crescent). I`m chiefly interested in the classic bikes made in the 60`s and 70`s and due to whatever extraordinairy reasons sometimes were called Skandia in the US. So, HELLO! Is there anyone out there enjoying a run on "swedish" steel?

Not a road bike, just a 1980`s Cresent, more like a tourer I think, did not look into it much.

And a Norwegian one in the same category, made in Lillehammer.

You know, Jan, you started basically this same thread a couple days ago (https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-vintage/474949-swedish-road-bikes.html), it would be best if you stick to the original thread, do a "bump" on it if you want, but don't start several threads on the same subject just to keep things going!

HI ,
everyday i see loads and loads of old crescent's out there .
but no picts and i sold all the crescents / monakrs i had in the last couple of years .
Cheers

This is a good source even if most of it is in Swedish, www.cykelhobby.com

My Crescent fixed gear.

Hi hawkeye!

I suspected an error on my first thread, why I sent another. Now there wasn`t an error, glad someone noticed...

When did Stockholm go international in relation to Örebro? Välkommen till landsorten! (In english; I was looking for international readers and riders and a reader in Stockholm saw too many MCB`s...we have a few Volvos as well...).

Don't be a smart ass. If your asking for Swedish bikes you're likely to get replys from people in Sweden unless you tell us your location.

You`re absolutely right; there were no trace of my origins (I reveal it in my presentation though) in this thread and I came on all to etno-centric. Still, not to bad to be a swedish, etno-centric smart-ass...

Hi, I have a Skandia in Chile. I can't upload any pictures yet because im new to the forum. It has a skandia sticker on the downtube, a reynolds 531 decal, a Made in Sweden sticker and another sticker with crowns on them. Ill try to post some pictures soon.
