I lived in Pakistan in the mid 60's and this was the exact style of bike that you saw every where. 28" wheels, rod brakes, heavy steel frame. There were millions of zillions of them! India too. I know a family that had one made in 1900 and it was basically the same as a new one. Google Indian bicycle and you see that in 2013 they are still the same!
thanks had a look wow i might need to go to India !
