I have acquired one of these bikes and don't know anything about them
It's an O'Brien and is called 'International' It has steel tubing but no other stickers identifying what it is. It is, however, very light.
It is 5 speed and has Huret derailleurs with downtube friction shifters and weinmann brakes and a lovely Sugino 52/42 chainset.
Any knowledge out there?
Cheers,
Grantus

Rory O'Brien was a frame builder in the 60s and 70s. see here http://www.cyclechat.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=3345
However, Obrien was also the name on nasty cheap "racers" in the mail order catalogues of the time. Like Kays and Littlewoods.
Obviously not the same at all.0 -
