Hello Hugh,

I have a 1969 or 1970 which has the same references (as well as "Frejus... Torino"). On my bike, the head "badge" is the same transfer as on the seat tube. Afraid I can't help you with actual dates, but I will keep looking. Perhaps this will at least be a start toward narrowing down the time.

Good Luck! Bob Hanson, Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA

The decal refers to Frejus being World Champion and Olympic Champion. The many World Championship dates are easy to track down, but does anyone know in which year(s) Olympic Championships were won on Frejus bikes or know in which year Frejus started to use decals proclaiming Olympic championship?
