The only pair of french bars I have are already on my Peugeot. And then there are these rivnut ones...
I will take a look and let you know. I had a big pile of alloy drop bars but I sold a bunch at the last swap meet in which I sold. I know there were a few FR bars but maybe I came back with one, I will know after the weekend. No, I and you do not want to try sanding down the clamp area to make a larger clamp diameter bar fit 25.0, it might work in theory but would not trust the results to be reliable/safe.
