A very nicely hand-built 650B touring bicycle from the well respected French constructeur and maker of beautiful bicycle luggage, based at Pont-de-Vaux near Macon. Of fillet brazed construction, the workmanship is very fine and the bicycle well finished. The machine is equipped with very strong and beautifully hand-built fillet brazed tubular chromed racks, front and rear, tailored to the bike and stamped individually with the frame number. There is also the Berthoud decaleur for the front bag. I don’t know what the tubing is but the machine is not particularly light, being prepared for long distance rugged touring. Everything works well…. strong braking, precise gears, top class wheels.
Frame size is large - seat tube 60 cm c to c, and 56 cm top tube c to c
Equipment includes Stronglight triple chainset, Sachs Quartz indexed click-shift gearing, superb Maxicar hubs laced to Mavic Module 3 rims. Shimano cantilever brakes and levers, Belleri bars and Ideale saddle. Berthoud stainless mudguards. In very good condition.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE BAGS IN THE PICTURES ARE NOT INCLUDED.
Price: £1,150 ovno
Can be seen/collected from East London
