The answer is:

What kind of a century?

Gearing and fit may be top ‘o th list!

AustroDaimler Puch made a ‘fast touring’ frame. Went on Vent Noir, Olympian and (maybe) Force bikes. 531 dB framesets (in the early 80’s anyway). Also put a slightly lesser fork (and therefore more damped) on it and hit a lower price point with a great riding bicycle. I forget all the models.

Both 61cm with tall headtubes, so really what is today called Endurance.


The Olympian maybe a year older, and fewer braze-ons.
