I know they were French, but other than that I can't find any info about this brand. Anyone known much about them? I saw one at Dave's Bike Dump here in town (http://www.bikedump.com/) the sticker on it said $199 (CDN of course) but it's hanging outside so it's suffering. It was neat, Mafac Racers, Solidat cranks, Atom pedals (French thread I noticed), Huret (Dupar? better than Alvit, but not Jubilee) derailleurs. Paint was a bit rough, decals were good though, and it needed an overhaul and tires.... oh I probably don't need another bike.
