I want to buy this Mercier Special tour de France bike, it has got realy

funky colours and nice decals.

The problem is, that i cannot see if it's a real "special Tour De France" or

not. It has got Mafac Racer Brakes, simplex derailleurs and a pivo stem, but

in general it looks a littlebit cheap with this components (nevermind the

cranks).

Does anybody recognize the frame, is it 531 or not? I would appreciate any help

by

buying this fancy icecream.

here are pictures:
