Hi, I know NOTHING about bikes! But I have bought this, and would love some addition information. I have only bought it to ride to work. The advert said 'MoNarch classic red ladies bike'. Thank u!

Quick search suggest Monarch steel Dutch town bike by Marlboro Cycles... 80s?

Marlboro logo – looks the same as yours...

Marlboro, from what I can gather, were based at Wordsley, near Stourbridge.

There was a version of your bike on eBay recently. Google "1983 MARLBORO MONARCH Steel Sturmey Archer Dutch Classic Vintage Town Bicycle" All the info you need ref specs seems to be there.

Welcome to the forum, BTW!
