Allegro
Bikeology sold a lot of these! Many others sold them as well. We just came upon one from the pre-war era with Reynolds tubing and neat derailers that is quite nice.

In the early 70's they had a few different models - some pretty crude, some rather pleasant. The fancy models had an interesting smoke paint finish that was a Swiss version of a really nice fade - decades before they became the rage.

While some models are nice, there is not a lot of demand for them so value is again parts based. For very clean smoke examples value may be a bit higher. For regular N.R. examples figure $600. If an attractive smoke finish bike perhaps $750.
