> ...t's a 1984! Then I wiped the grime off > and discovered - it's French threaded. You'd be surprised how long French threading remained in use. Perhaps it still is in France. Anyway, I have a 1984 Peugeot made from Reynolds tubing and it's French all the way: French BB threading, 22.0mm stem diameter, 26.4 seat post and 28mm diameter seat tube. It didn't have a French threaded freewheel, though. Instead it had a Maillard Helicomatic. Vive le France! Fred Rednor - Arlington, Virginia
