Hello from TX
Hello, my name is Adam and I am a fire fighter in the Dallas area. I love anything bike, including my dirtbike and my trek 4300. My wife and I are really interested in road biking/touring so I decided to get us some classic/vintage French bicycles. In my search I came across a French bike called a Fontan and found my wife a Peugeot. I am having a really hard time finding information on my Fontan but it has been a fun project nonetheless. If you have any information or ideas I would love to hear them.
Thanks and I am looking forward to many great days of restoration/riding.

Hi Adam--first, if you haven't already found it, check out the Texas regional forum. Then head over to the Classic & Vintage forum and show us the photos!
A lot of members here are from your neck of the woods, and some of them are real C & V fiends.
Welcome to BF, and feel free to PM me with any questions !

Awesome, thanks for the post. Right now I am waiting for a simplex derailleur to come in and i can get the wheels back on and get some photos up. I am totally new not only to road bikes but vintage as well so it should be an interesting journey. I am probably gonna need the help.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
