Royal Mark Cycles?
 

Hello,

Please excuse me if this is posted in the wrong subforum. I'm a college student planning to commute to school in Boston (Jamaica Plain to Roxbury/Boston). I'm just looking for a reliable, light, bicycle to get me to and from school.

I found this bicycle on craigslist nearby me (Southern NH). Never heard of the brand. Google couldn't find anything. Did a search on this forum. No luck. Anyone ever heard of Royal Mark Cycles "speciale" model?

This is just a guess, but it may be basically an "unbranded" asian bike. I used to own a "Le Prix" made in Korea. All in all it was a decent bike, and felt lighter than my japanese 10 speed. But the "Le Prix" brand? Never found a trace of it.

It a 70's vintage bike, guessing from the cottered cranks and suicide levers. It may be a good bike for what you need it for. I wouldn't pay much though. $25-45 maybe. My "Le Prix" cost me $25.00, my favorite dealer had taken it in trade for something else.

I'd post in Classics and Vintage.
