Here's something I rarely pick up, a french bike. But it had some nice bits, including Campy hubs and skewers, Simplex bar end shifters, nice alloy stem and bars, Mafac brakes in great condition, and Nervar alloy crankset. Even has a nice chrome fork crown. No idea what model this is, but I think it originally came with the bar ends, given the cable stops on the DT. Stamped drop outs and small seat post = something towards the basic end.

I do like white french bikes. They have a way of making them look really sharp.
