Chuck:

This is a French thing!!...........I remember seeing a Motobecane team with a full Spidel groupo and it had this type of front mech!! I don't remember seeing many French bikes with anything else other than this type of a set-up.

The Motobecane team model I told you about has this same set-up, frame fork and the front mech!! It will be nice to have a French bike in the barn!

I don't know!...........Waiting for a frame to use a Derailleur?? That sounds like fun!.............Going agains't the grain!!
