Hi Sarah, It's a Sieber. I've got one just like it (#7758) on which the decals are legible. Mine is all copper plated (no chrome?) reynolds 531. My bike has the same lugs which are outlined in a medium blue. The indentations in the chainstays and the space between the forkcrown plates are filled with the same blue.

The kit is as follows: crank/chainring/bb - magistroni, headset-stronglight competition, rims-sieber metal clad, pedals-sheffield sprint, seatpost-unnamed alloy straight, bars-unmarked, stem/bars-unmarked, saddle-lohmann.

Regards, -Chuck Taylor Scitute, MA

greetings fine bicycle folk about 3 years ago i sent dale a couple of photos of this frame and no one seemed to know anything about it then. we have added some folks to the list since then and particularly some from europe, where this frame came from. so i though i would try again and see if anyone has any ideas. the rims are quite nice too. notice the integrated headset. would like to know more about them if anyone knows those. since those wood rims are nos i will not be using them on the bike. along with this i have a metal clad wood racing width rim on a front chater-lea hub, with a 28 1/8" gillette "road racing" tire probably about the era of this bike. would like to find a rear to match. if anyone has such a wheel please email off list. and of course i will be looking for appropriate seatpost, saddle, stem, handlebars and pedals. oh yeah, the address of the photos is: http://www.oldtowncyclery.com/coppertrack.htm thanks peace
