Bogdan’s 1981 Favorit Touring Sport

Posted

Adding to our list of “Favorits“, this is Bogdan’s 1981 Favorit Touring Sport.

Year: 1981
Make: Rokycany Czechoslovakia
Model: Touring Sport
A little bit about it:
All parts are original, including the 27 inch Barum tires. It has only 8 speed, Velo four cog-set on the free wheel. All parts are made “in the house” and have the Favorit inscription on them.

P.S. – Nice job with Old Ten Speed gallery, extremely useful website for old bicycle owners and one of my top ten browser bookmarks. Keep doing the good job. Best regards, Bogdan

    Bogdan, that sure is a classy looking bike . I especially like the color and the remarkable condition that it is in. I’ve always thought that four/eight speeds was the perfect amount to have for city riding/touring, but that is sort of a “rare bird” out here. (four speed freewheel or cassette) I have managed to make a few on my own and have enjoyed what to me is plenty of gears.
    Nice bike, wouldn’t change anything on it.
