I bought this bike with the idea of learning by taking it apart and trying to put it back together. I'm a complete beginner.
Any idea what this bike might be? Or its age? Any suggestions on what needs to be done to the bike? I can make more pictures if needed, but i've already started to take the bike apart.
Handlebars: Friko, which is a German company, and every model I've found has black grips. These cream grips say made in Italy so they might not be original to the handlebars.
Derailleurs/shifters: Huret
Brakes: Weinmann type 810 and 730
bar to the pedal: Nervar
pedals have a West German patent number
No serial number on the bottom bracket, but 7363 is stamped on the part where the back wheel attaches.
dynamo (the part on the tire): side is stamped with IX-965, bottom is stamped with Made in Italy – V6 – W 5?+0.3 PUL? The front light is from Union and has a West German ~k number.
While old, I'm pretty sure the blue paint isn't original because the wiring for the dynamo has traces of blue spray paint. The cream might be original.
