optimistic for a 'broken' frame!

wonder what happened to damage it in those places! I assume the collars are from repairs.

 

[suburbanreuben]

I'm not with you; what makes you think it's broken?

 

[the_duke]

The silver "collars" around the top tube and down tube normally indicate a repair at that point I think.

Could be wrong, maybe its a strengthening thing for this style???

No, those collars are couplings so you can take the bike apart and take it on holiday.

Indeed and usually cost an arm and a leg to have installed.

Very cool and indeed a very expensive bike when new
