Lejeune bicycle
Hello, can anyone help me ID this bicycle? It looks very similar to the Deluxe Touring model: LeJeune, 2 catalog pages
Would 130 dollars be a fair price for this bicycle?

Looks to be a different size than the Gitane bike you asked about and not as nice a bike either.

Still learning
That frame size, about 54 cm, if for a rider about 5'7" +/- 2". I bought the very same bike in 1972 and still have it. Nice rider, but entry level components on a high-tensile frame.
The OP better figure out what size frame he or she needs first, as there is 6" height difference in the two French bikes presented.

I apologize for my ignorance.
