I would like to ask the group to help me identify this bike. It belonged to my grandmother and it has hung in my mother's garage for the past 20+ years. All I know is that it is a Swedish bike and quite old.

Hello AlGorup,

welcome to the forum.

thank you for posting this beautiful bicycle.

the make of the cycle, Nordstjernan, is mentioned earlier in this thread.

one thing i recognise is the bicycle's crankset; it looks to be Briga brand, an indigenous Swedish product.

others with more knowledge should be along soon to help you out...

thank you gain for sharing your machine.
