A few days ago a query was raised about a possible relationship between these two French manufacturers of chainsets. I have been researching the history of cycle and cycle accessory manufacturers in and around St Etienne, and again visited the city and its suburbs only a few weeks ago. As part of the research I am attempting to rake photographs of the premises used in years gone by and some of the current ones before the get demolished to make way for yet another huge food "hypermarche"

Last august I visited the factories of both Nervar - sadly no longer manufacturing- and Stronglight - stil where they were years ago but now under changed ownership, yet again. As far as I can ascertain there was no real relationship, Stronglight being in St Etienne itself while Nervar was up the road about 18 kms away in St Chamond, just around the corner from the old Vitus tubing factory in the valley of the River Gier - hence the name of the company that manufactured Vitus tubng, Ateliers de la Rive - "rive" referring to the banks of the river.

"Stronglight" was a trade mark of the Verot Perrin company, while " Nervar" was a marque owned by Peyrard. I have been trying to link the "Stronglight" Perrin with the Perrin company that manufactured the Pelissier and Excelto range of hubs at Boen not far from St Etienne Trading from the same address in St Etienne as Verot Perrin was another company Ets Haubtmann - which manufactured a range of steel chainsets under the brand "Solida".

If you study a pair of Solida cranks ( and probably Milremo ones too) they look very similar to the cheaper steel cranks of Nervar, and to some of the cheaper model Duprat cranks from earlier years. Again if you look at a pair of Stronglight 93 cranks they bear something of a resemblance to the Nervar Star - all of which makes me think that there might have been some collaboration if not actual shared ownership.

I hope to get back to St Etienne in July to ferret about a bit more and to try to access some company records held by the Museum of Arts and Industry which has a superb permanent collection of bikes.

Just one final comment relating to that collection.. to sort of prick the bubble in a sense. On show last year there was a cyclo-cross frame attributed to none other than Rene Herse.. and the frame carried his name. It was a pretty standard job brazed up with Nervex Pro lugs.. and that it just about as good as it got. The workmanship and standard of brazing was truly dreadful and I have chosen that word after considerable thought. Dreadful! Maybe it harked back to his apprenticeship days.. I reckon someone in the Museum bore the renowned builder a real grudge.

oh, i cant resist...

parts i look at and drool (ever growing list):

oh, whaddya know, ive got a little web page devoted to this subject!

http://www.blackbirdsf.org/bikes/bits.html

parts i use and love love love:

campagnolo barend shifters/suntour power ratchet barend shifters - the campy cause theyre just so simple, the suntour cause theyre just that one notch nicer, all that a barend shifter needs to ever be, as far as im concerned...

brooks b17n/b17/b15 saddles while they still had the rounded inserts in the saddlebag loops rather than them being just stamped out of sheet steel

sturmey archer aw 3 speed hubs, pre 70s, or whenever it was that the planets stopped having the nice bevel on the edge of the gear. i dont know if its just my imagination or not, but the later minus-a-step-in-machining planets just dont seem to run as smooth...

fb and campy steel center high-flange track hubs. MAN these things are smooth. ill take my fbs in a "whose hub will spin free longer" contest over just about anything.

modolo/mavic/etc brake levers - i think this is one of those things you either love or dont. i like the curve of these levers way better than campys, its just one of those things.

mafac cantilevers - simple, and work way better than many people give them credit for.

silca frame pumps with campy heads. ive never needed more. sure they can be a bit fragile, but they work, and you can rebuild them. im a sucker for that.

plain binda toestraps. im still not convinced the extras are better :)

anything ta, but you knew that :)

theres some other stuff, but its ot...

Just spent the weekend riding at Cedar Falls, OH which is between Athens and Columbus. Stopped in the Cycle Path in Athens which had a few classics hanging with information on the bikes. The bikes were 1973 Speedwell, Eddy Merchx with Campagnolo Record and a 1971 Bob Jackson with chome as well as copper plating. Very nice folks and a few bikes you don't see too often.

Great riding to be found with rolling hills. My mid '70's Rauler was a lot of fun riding on these roads. Very hot and humid which I wasn't used to.

Hi Richard, To get an idea of what was on the market, I'd suggest an afternoon of browsing thru the vintage catalogs on Mark Bulgier's website:

In particular, the Cyclo-Pedia catalog is an interesting source of some of the goodies available in the early 70's, albeit primarily of European origin.

Lotsa good general articles in the catalog too....

Don:

I am not concerned with correct as OEM. (Heck, people bought the bikes and had the dealer change-out components. Or, the dealer did change-outs on the floor stock.) I am concerned with being period correct for reason of the shared aesthetics of an era. You're correct, the std. issue Raleigh options are limited. I'm sure that somewhere in the world there is a person whose hobby is bicycle handlebars.

the two types of handlebars used were GB "map of england" in both maes and randonneur (only on raleigh gransports), and plain-jane generic raleigh maes bars (i have 4x of them and they don't say ANYTHING on them). there MIGHT have been one or two 3T bars used, but only on the raleigh pro, and i am not sure what year.

there are three types of stems used in the 1970 and later bikes. There is the GB with a recessed bolt - these are pretty nice, and very hard to find - on competition, international, and sometimes on professionals - if you cannot find one, just buy a hex bolt one and take it to a machine shop to get it drilled for recessed bolt. i have both types and it's clear to me that this is the only difference. after market bolts are still pretty easy to obtain.

the other type is a 3T record. It's just so hard to identify these because it says "T T T" on one side and "record" on other side !! HAR. anyway, if you find one of these, make sure to shim it up with the GB (25.4) bars so you don't crack the 3T stem (25.8).

Coppi is all alone dancing with the yellow jersey. His lead and stage wins in 1952 were a level beyond anyone else. The next group of seven were having some success as well... includes riders from Italian National, Sud-Est, Belgium National. Next group of three had less success, but some small luck none-the-less... I think all thre had worn the yellow jersey. And finally, the group on the right are the unsuccessful French National Team, with nothing to celebrate except a cauliflower ???

Jacques Goddet, director of the Tour de France from 1947 to ??? Boudart - official time keeper. Felix Levitan - assistant to Goddet and his successor as director of the TdF.

In the course of refurbishing several vintage lwts, I have noticed that almost every rear axle is bent (incl Campy). Considering my junkyard/thrift-shop sources of bikes it is not altogether surprising but I think it emphasizes a

weak link in design (unsupported axle length). I can't help thinking that even if the axle is not permanently deformed its probably bending under load and this can't be good for bearing alignment and free-running. Of course we never see this since we adjust unloaded.

I also wonder if the fattening of America isn't putting our lightweights at risk. When the bikes were designed it was probably unusual for a rider to be over 175 lbs yet many of us are probably pushing 200 or more.

I have yet to find a Helicomatic axle bent although plenty have relatively rough races. This is one of several reasons why I like the Helicomatic. I guess the Shimano cassette solves this problem but it doesn't classify as vintage,

or does it?

I lost my ability to get to that site when I went from AOL on a dialup line to a DSL line run by the phone company. Don't know why and nothing anyone's suggested has fixed it. Oddly, any other link that gets posted seems to be no problem. ebay, tiny URLs, photo links, etc. all work, but let someone put a link to bulgier.net and no go. Anyone else have this happen and fix the problem?
