Thanks for looking Tom I found the Huret one. You can see it goes over the braze on.

That's not natural!

Only one braze on bought from an old local bike shop shutting because of retirement over 20 years ago. I bought all of his huret top tube clips too.

... for peanuts!

And now they are worth their weight in... er, heavy chrome French cycle fittings!

That's ingenious.

So I thought I'd check the stem and seat post. Stem moves but is tight, just like someone has rammed an English stem in at 22.2 mm not 22mm. I don't care it moves. I'll take whatever I can get. Seat post came straight out. Oh there's a shim wtf, looks original. Seat post measures a shade under 22mm on the verynear. I take out the shim and try a "standard" Peugeot seat post which is 24mm and it's like a prick in a shirt sleeve. Also the top of the seat tube is distorted. I'll dress it up and try another seat post later.
