Late 70's Grand Jubile
I have built up that Grand Jubile frame I was asking questions about earlier. It turns out the bottom bracket was swiss but I somehow found the correct parts after an hour of searching through bins. I also found a 1st gen cyclone front derailleur. Sadly I don't have the correct SR cranks, Wienmann levers (currently using drilled dia compes), or a cyclone rear derailleur, those will have to be found at a later time. A more fitting rack and fenders are also in order.

Great looking bike and great score. I wouldn't sweat finding a cyclone RD; you're running a pretty good suntour RD.
