Some info on the SLE. The headset is guaranteed to be Austrian thread. The only two sources for an Austrian headset are the Puch Maxi moped headsets (sold new by some obscure website) and other old AD's or Puch's. You'll want to repack with loose bearings as the cups are thin and are easily "Brinelled". They do not interchange with any other standard. Milling is not an option. The headtube is 22.0mm, so it's French stems only. The BB is most likely to be English. You can tell for sure if the lockring knurling is cross-hatched. If not, then it's French or Swiss. Only applies to the original Nervar BB. This frame requires clamp-on cable guides. Tubing is standard. Colour is "Salzburg Blue".
