Have this bike for some years already. It was labeld as "Gerber" (Swiss bike shop) but then somebody gave me the tip it's an early Rickert. Brought it back to original looking as good as I could. 8.9 kg as shown

Absolutely beautiful! Glad you restored the bike and thanks for sharing. Probably acclerates like a rocket, judging from the frame angles.

Thank you Ashok_Captain ! It's a really speedy bike for sure. I used to ride it quite often (on the street) before the restauration but now it became a decorative piece of art of my appartement. There's no track oval near and it's not allowed to ride on the streets without brakes...
