The Monark Sport Racer

Well, I think it's the Sport Racer. Obviously the logo is showing some signs of wear and tear but the awesome band of Monark crowns is still looking... awesome. Whether it's a 'racer' is really a different question altogether.
The great Monark vertical badge gets a look in on the down tube. Which has been mentioned, quite a few, times before on this blog. But it still looks good, so here is another variation.
The Svenskt kvalitetsfabrikat logo also pops up on the seat tube. It's a shame it's so torn up. This time it reads 'Svenskt kvalitetscykel' - 'A Swedish quality bicycle'. It's great the pride that used to be behind the manufacturing process for these old bikes.

I see a red bike and I want to paint it... green.

An advertising bike I saw in Stockholm. I take it that it's green to attract people's attention, but whether that works beyond people who look at bikes for obscure blogs is rather unclear.

The light is rendered quite useless by the process.

The job done on the Monark badge reminds me of the pink King bicycle I saw ages and ages ago. Except a bit more thoroughly!
A strange fate for a bicycle.
