I stumbled upon a low-end Crescent that had a one-piece Simplex 3-arm crank with Al chainwheels...never seen these before. The bike was ratty but with other unusual features such as c-pull calipers whose design resembled Mafac Racers but semi-round in section like Weinmann...the make decal now illegible...might have been Altenburgher (sp?) but don't think so. I almost brought it home for the ornate headbadge...
Is this bike worth "preserving" for my posterior or posterity...or did I do right by walking away?
