>From the site: Beautiful top-of-the-line French Follis Tandem made for the famous Mel Pinto Company. 59 x 54cm. It has a Suntour drive train, TA Tevano Cranks, drum brake, all fillet brazed Reynolds 531, double plate fork crown, full braze-ons for racks, fenders, etc. It's been hanging in a warehouse for 20-30 years; it's brand new! I'd put this in the same class as a nice Herse or Singer tandem. More photos here<http://picasaweb.google.com/VeloOrange/MPFollisTandems> .

Stand-over heights are about 82cm and 86cm.
