I love this type of bicycle, but I have to say no way, not a chance is it worth that to me.

Robert Ducheron bike with some nice features, would have to swop the rear mech for a Huret Jubilee though..

Time for a thread bump. Some vintage bottom brackets I've spotted for sale.

A used one. From around 1900s.




A NOS one. Love how it is in original packaging with instructions. Probably been knocking around in a tool box for about 80 years.
