They were good "mid-range" French-made road bikes thirty years ago. Their name is currently owned by an E-Bay operation that sells the sort of bikes you would expect to buy from an E-Bay sort of operation. Generic Asian frames, outfitted with a mismash of surplus, overstock, and brand x components and wheels.

The best bike, of any type, or any price range, is the bike sold at the corner bike shop. Proper assembly, tuning, and wheel truing is the difference between a poor quality ride and a great ride.
