Add another Universal to the list. Here's a link to a page copied from the 1939 Donesseli catalog featuring the "Tenax" brake/lever. It says they're available in dural and steel. Some Italians have also called these the 39 model. Maybe, they changed the name, at some point??? http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/francopedia/vwp?.dir=/RARE&.src=ph&.dnm=uniTENAX1939.jpg&.view=t&.done=http%3a//photos.yahoo.com/bc/francopedia/lst%3f%26.dir=/RARE%26.src=ph%26.view=t
