Much appreciated, Patrick. The yellow frame and fork came out of the Motobecane factory with an Astra head badge, I think. Motobecane built that bike for a distributor in Washington State. That's what Sheldon Brown says. The vintage would be in the 70's I would guess. It's a very nice riding bike. Presently, I have it decommissioned and would like to sell the frame and fork with a Simplex seat post, Stronglight A9 headset, Huret down tube shifters, and Huret Challenge rear deraillure and front deraillure, (new).
Vittorio Malagnini: on Facebook look up Malagnini. Vittorio died a couple of years ago but he has two sons that build beautiful racing bikes. Lucio is on Facebook and there is a photo of him and his father Vittorio. Also, goole CicloRestauri. There is one other Malagnini in the U.S.A. built by Lucio. Look up Italian Racing Journal. I sold the Malagnini frame and fork recently to a gentleman just North of San Fran. He did a very beautiful build. "So many nice bikes, so little money!" Yeah. That's one of the reasons I'm selling the Rivendell. I'm 72 a retired year old, on S.S. and out of that bikes class. Best to you.
