LeJeune "junior" road bike ?
Hey everyone,
Anyone knows if there were many road bikes for children back in the 70s? There's this LeJeune for sale in local Kijiji and I may buy it for a winter restoration project. I know LeJeune had some good quality bikes but I'm pretty sure this LeJeune for kids is low-end quality. The seller is asking 50$. What do you think? I don't have kids, but this may be a good bicycle to restore. Does it worth the efforts?
This is the only picture I have for the moment. I can't identify the components...

sure looks interesting. I am not sure this is one of Le June's better offerings though. still it could eb a cool fun project, and it would make a neat decor piece in the livingroom.
