Hello Francophiles! Anyone know much about LaPebie? I understand that he was a racer in the 40s or 50s. I'm guessing that my frame is from about 1949. It came w/ Lefol smooth fenders, an early stronglight 49 crank, 650B Super Champs and Huret derls. The rear derl was apparently updated as it attached directly to the rear fork-end and not to the 2-hole fitting on the drop-out. It also did not have the chainstay-mounted cage spring. Does anyone know the time-line for the 2-hole derailleur attachment? Thanks
