I've seen similar NDS bracing on another French frame, I think. Can someone tell me why that's there?

I mean obviously for disc brakes, right?

I do see a cam of some sort from the hub to the NDS chainstay, but that isn't for a coaster brake on this bike...

For a drum or coaster brake.

There is a good bike under the paint

It looked fairly complete. I like the branded chainwheel.

Aquilon. "Made in France", Mafac brakes, Huret gears. CLB brake levers. Seems all original except for tyres etc.

Pink Mercier, with matching bar tape.

I bet you don't see a Hetchins locked in the street all that often. At least the owner has used one of those grinder resistant D locks.

Pinarello Cromor lo-pro.
