I own one that is alleged to be 1960. It's a road
bike with the original finish and "Bob Hansing's
Montrose Bike Shop" sticker still intact. It's now
set up as a fixed gear with not one stock part left
save the adjustment screws in the dropouts.

\r?\n> A while ago I was fortunate to purchase a restored
\r?\n> Ideor "Professional".
\r?\n> Best estimates appear to be early 60's as many top
\r?\n> models were fitted with
\r?\n> the Brooks Narrow Rail Saddle.
\r?\n> According to the Ideor brochure (available from
\r?\n> Chuck S at
\r?\n> http://www.velo-rendezvous.com ) Ideor's were well equipped
\r?\n> with Campy Record HF
\r?\n> Hubs, Columbus Extra Light Tubing, Campy,
\r?\n> Stronglight and Magistroni cranks.
\r?\n>
\r?\n> There are numerous former Ideor Track and Road bike
\r?\n> owners on the CRList. I
\r?\n> hope you are able to generate a good thread from
\r?\n> your query, I am looking
\r?\n> forward to learning more as many Ideor's were
\r?\n> imported to owners across
\r?\n> North America from perhaps as early as 1956/57 to
\r?\n> the early 60's.
\r?\n>
\r?\n> Will all those Ideor owner's please stand up ???
