I am considering a long (for me anyway) drive to look at a lovely Swiss "Tornado" ladies bike for my sweetie. The seller doesn't know much about it but the tubing sticker reads; "Warranty Nantiuse Steel Tubes and D'Acier Seamless Tubes." Lugs appear to be Nervex Pro Ladies.

Can anyone shed any light on this?
