Frame ID? Rekord...

Can somebody ID this frame?

Possibly a Rekord II but I know fa about the brand.

 

[non-fixie]

Soviet era Eastern Bloc product would be my guess. XB3 perhaps?

The typeface suggests it is styled in something Soviet-era, but surely it would have Cyrillic characters e.g. a rho instead of R? East German perhaps?

I think the biggest archive of Kharkov (XB3) pictures I've seen is this decal thread on a Russian forum: http://tourist.kharkov.ua/phpbb/viewtop ... 31&t=31530

Can't translate any of it for you though!
