Much precisions, super hi-tech! :D   Looks to be at least '68.
Complete with droll British narration.
I'm sure this has been posted before but since the search isn't working...... ;)

That's really interesting. I can't believe the scale of their operations then. For example, since our bikes came with DID rims, I am surprised to see they had a rim bending, welding, and plating area. Seems like there was a room or section for every part.
