It's great to have you on the forum! Welcome.

So a couple of questions pop into my head, like, are you in anyway connected to your families business? Are you into bikes at all? Is Bernards son looking to get back into frame building? Are these bikes (and you) French?

Excuse my naivety, but I'm not really familiar with your grandfathers bikes. There are probably others here as well. Could you tell us alittle about them and their history?

Thanks!
