All I know for sure is that this bike rides like a dream. Was thinking that maybe I was suffering from some sort of placebo affect- that is- just riding a bike that was actually made in France had an affect somehow...

But no, after taking it out time after time it's clear. This bike is a true pleasure to ride and own. Actually the favorite of my little fleet.
