Peugeot U0-8-ish. I have one with just the right shifter braze-on. The Simplex shifter band had the left shifter built-in. The clamp had a cut out for the right shiter. I guess they could set up the frames with no front derailleur this way. Mine has the same head lugs and stamped drops in the back. ********************************** Fred Yavorsky Jenkintown, PA fred@twistcomm.com http://twistcomm.com/FredBikes.html
