Nor too familiar with the Monty bikes and there seems to be relatively little information about the older ones. A 1987 catalog page has a bike that is nearly identical to this one and is listed as an Ot Pi replica. The decals on this one are a little bit different. The Monty bikes were produced in Spain and use a lot of European and Monty-labeled components. Quality appears to be relatively modest and the chrome plating is pretty thin. Interesting components include the brakes that route the cable through a roller supposedly increasing the power. The bike also has a nicely integrated aluminum bash guard and an aftermarket front brake guard.
