Built in 1977 by Edgar Jurjaks, Alingsås, Sweden. Still looks the same as then except that I changed the seats from black to white bates. Paint from that era too.
It took Edgar one year to decide if I was the right buyer for the bike. Eventually we meet at a party and after sharing a bootle of Ouzo ( which we nicked) he decided that I could have the bike. Now I owned it for 13 years.
