Peter Kohler asked, When are we going to hear from the Mercier and Lejeune camps?

Three LeJeunes, one was my primary race bike over 30 years ago, won my first state championship on it. I own it still, and it remains one of the of the top three road bikes I have, a Masi & a C.N.C. fight it out for the top of the podium.

While it rides well, it suffers from the worst construction of the trio, and has questionable honesty regarding the tubing decal.
