One of these two frames is likely to be my next fixed gear project. In the front, I have a LeJeune Professional; behind that is a Gitane, either a Super Corsa or a Tour de France (haven't figured out which just yet).
No no no, it was a serious question, and I would never ignore an Irish crank, especially not a well lubed one. I have a Gitane TdF on deck, and I just wanted to know what the deal was with the rethread. I'ld really prefer just to overhaul the original, but it was given to me with just the fixed cup, so I'm looking for options too, tried to order the Sugino from Harris, etc, etc. So thanks as always, you've cleared that right up. Kind of.
