The seller also provided some specs (in French), which are below.

Any thoughts?

Cadre Acier Tubes allégés
Roues Mavic pneu ar neuf
Dérailleurs simplex
Pédalier strongLight
Pédales Makishima
Cintre Alu Belleri
Freins Mafac Racer
Jantes Mavic
Nice! No Reynolds 531 sticker?

Could be a Mercier 200, maybe from 1970s. Belleri handlebars, Mafac brakes, nice Stronglight crank. Cadre Acier Tubes allégés probably means it's a high tensile steel frame.

Pretty nice bike tho'
