I have had a Favorit bike and also sold a few in the 70's. They were all absolutely attrocious. The sole reason to purchase them in Canada was related to the extremely low price. I bought a top-of-the-line F1 model that came equipped with Campagnolo Nuovo Record componentry. The whole bike cost less than the value of the Campagnolo bits at the time. I recycled the frame into tricycle duty. There is a very poor picture of it here: http://wooljersey.com/gallery/maasland/Trike_Conversion/Bike_up_rack.jp g.html
