hello all,

i have a few pics that may help in identifying the mafac variants.

metal http://idisk.mac.com/benkamen/Public/french/mafac/i-1.JPG

plastic http://idisk.mac.com/benkamen/Public/french/mafac/plastic/levers1.jpg

perhaps im not in sync with others on the mafac variants but i was quite taken with the plastic version. oh so cheerfull like a citroen 2cv. lotsa mojo, ridiculously light and ok for their intended use.

ciao revoir, ben kamen
