36 & 52 tooth chainrings

peugeots & gitanes used come stock with these chainrings, the clusters were 14-26 teeth. between the chainrings was a piece of sheet metal to provide a ramp to aid shifting from the small to large chainring. with the pushrod simplex front derailleurs (design that was kept in production 15 years after it was obsolete), so the upshifts were not lighting fast.
