Just thought I would counter all those lovely,beautifully crafted bikes in this months RBotM, with some age, flaky paint, and a bit of rust. I have just completed a clean, strip down, and regrease on this circa 1912 Continental 'Vélos sportifs', I don't know the model, so sports bike in french looked good. A bit of history, Continental Cycles were built in Angers, in the Loire valley from about 1900, through to the early 60's, they were taken over after World War 1 by a larger Group. It does ride okay ( flexible back required ), single freewheel, and has new 700A tyres ( 642 x 37 ), but currently you need to plan your braking, it has an original Bowden brake on the front, which is next to useless. Hope you like, Terry
