She was listed as a Luis Ocana MBK, I think she was built by a French company called SIFEM. They built most of the Luis Ocana branded bikes. The pad has their branding on too. Quite cool and I'm liking the blue Weinmann's on her. Comes with some nice SX pedals , DC levers and look at the size of the bars. Another odd one for the collection. The gusset is identical to the one on my Bernard Dangre frame.

This caught my eye too. Cool looking frame set for sure 8)
Nice pick up. You found any vintage ads or tests for it? :)
Looks like lots of stock parts. Even the tyres look in decent shape.
I think they're OG French Wolber tyres 8)

A Nice pair of CW freestyle bars landed??
They look similar to MK2 Burner bars, are mine legit? fistblump

I've started a thread on the Tech and Restoration section Paul, check it out. Yeah it has nice Wolber tyres in great condition and some stock parts I reckon with a few nice upgrades. I cannot find any info except for another SIFEM made bike , it has the same style dropouts but no gusset. I think it's a year or too later than mine and it's a loopy. Here's a few pics of what I found.

Don't quote me on it but I think I remember finding out that the knurling is a solid diamond pattern on the CW's. Others will be able to confirm if that is right or wrong Steve. You would probably expect some nicer welds on the CW's too I'm guessing.
Looking good whatever they are fistblump
