Tour de Suisse is another sub-Mondia brand. Great bikes. I have only seen 22" frames .

It is my understanding that Juvela was an alternative brand used by Mondia, usually at a slightly lower price point. I have a Julela frame, a quality frame, cleanly made, but less ornate than Mondia, with single color paint.
