As far as I could find on the internet, MCB stands for Monark Crescent aktiebolaget

I got this bike on tradera.com, the Swedish eBay and for a long time didn’t have time for it.  However, now its time has come.

Identification

I searched for similar bikes online, but couldn’t find many. Similar bikes were produced under the brand Monark, like this ones:

What I would like to do is:

  1. replace the tube on the back wheel – done
  2. add missing spokes and true the wheels, as much as possible
  3. clean and polish the metal plates: fork, handlebar, stem, rims and maybe spokes
  4. remove or replace the mudguards
  5. replace the ugly saddle
