Norris,
Thanks for the very interesting background on this marque.
I picked up a mid 70s - mid range frame as my first ever eBay outing. My wife has done work for an NGO in Liberia - and as I am an unrepentant francophile I was compelled to pick it up (recognizing that Grenoble is a long way from west africa!)
My other favorite semi-obscure French marque is Urago from Nice. I have an scruffy Rando (40s / 50s?) and a Piste of unknown vintage in my garage.
I have the impression there may still be shop (selling scooters?) under that name in Nice - though I believe there are no bikes being produced under that name. Any info on that line would be much appreciated.
