I recently found a Hercules 10-speed & it is basically a Sports with derailliers & drop bars. IThis bike seems to be similarly equiped, Huret Allvit, the giant stem shifters on the downtube, maybe even the 26x1 3/8 tyres. I do like the White Mattress Brooks seat on the Hercules better than this one's. If I were a foot & a half shorter I'd keep the Hercules as its funky. But I'll get it roadable & sell it with the tag " rare, not to be confused with valuable, Hercules Royal Geoffery..." I'd be thrilled with $40 for it.
