It's a fillet brazed frame, 58x58 geometry

Someone knows this frameset?

Hi victorlsfm and welcome to the forum.

Cool bike.

I am Swedish, but have never seen a road bike from Kroon. There has been a connection with Brazil for large Swedish companies for many years. And Monark had(has?) a factory in Brazil. And Kroon was bought by the Monark Crescent joint company, MCB.
If you want to have more information just google the Swedsih word for bicycle = cykel and kroon > "kroon cykel".
Here is a cool Kroon utility bike with full suspension from 1943:

Thanks!
The monark no longer here but the factory bikes from the 70s and 80s are still readily found here

Unfortunately many Brazilians have a habit of cutting, operate the frames, removing the braze-ons and other identifying pieces.....
I believe it might be related monark because of the central movement of 45mm

I think I found!
Do not much like the Crescent VM 201 racer, 1952 in cromoly?
Note the fork, the steering box, the hubs, the Brooks saddle b-17, the bolts holding the wheels.
