Could be a Dawes Galaxy of old: I believe they were blue before they changed to green.

I thought it was a galaxy - a friend has one just like it.

If tis a Galaxy tis ancient, Galaxies have had forged drop-outs for more than twenty years and that's a plate.

They did say in a previous thread that it was ca. 1980.

I have an old green-with-chrome forks Galaxy from about 1977 - quite a bit upgraded and still going strong as a commuter.
