Not much on technical data, but I know of one local person who knows this bike. The local USCF Rep, a Dutchman, has been showing up on my Tue night rides most of the summer. He has been riding since at least the late 40s, and came to the US in the early 50s. I got him talking about Dutch bicycles one night, and he mentioned Joko.

Sutherland's 4th edition does not list the name.
