Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

IMO it's a low-mid level generic French bike. It's hard to tell from the photo, but I believe that a close inspection will show that the head tube is a single piece simulating a tube with 2 brazed lugs. Instead it's a single piece embossed to look that way. These were common on low end bikes that wanted to pass for better.
