So on a whim I bought an old frame from a LBS today. I have pretty much come up dry for info on this company. Here's what I've been able to discover/describe about this bike.
A page on classicrendevous that has pictures of what I believe is the same bike as mine although the color is a lighter blue in those pictures.
http://www.classicrendezvous.com/France/Terrot_.htm
It appears to have Peugeot tubing (tube special allege) which I've been able to gather was used on low end Peugeot frames.
I've been able to find that Terrot was a company that produced bikes around the turn of the century and even had some crazy bikes like ones with levers for pedals but nothing from my assumed time period of 60's-70's on this bike.
Does anyone have any other info on this company or bike?
Thanks
also do you think I got tooled for paying 50 bucks for it (it seemed kind of high but those lugs were sweet), there's no fork on it either. Just cranks and a front derailleur (which are going to come off).
