I have recently found an Orbea lightweight road bike. It is in really good original condition but clearly been stored in a garage for many years. The only number I can find on the frame is 61 on the lower headstock. It has Simplex 10 gears and is generally original but I suspect the front steel wheel is a replacement although the rear looks original. Can anyone give me an approx date please? I have approached Orbea but they were not interested! The frame is red with all original transfers.
