HELLO, Everybody.
Many thanks for all the info provided about the Fontan bicycle I have and it now seems like it a is a 1928/29 model brought out by the makers as a celebration of Victor Fontan's heroic stage win of 387kms from Hendaye to Lucon.
I was alittle saddened though to see the thread then turn into heated debate about personal past issues.
Regards, Tim Gunn
