HURET 1977 Type Dropouts
That's a Huret 1977 Type Dropout with an industry standard Campagnolo style derailleur hanger. The derailleur is a Spidel badged Simplex SLJ 5500 CP/SP with a 30T Max freewheel sprocket size.
NOTE: the openings of the dropouts and fork ends are tapered to make putting the wheels in easier. WOW! such a simple idea!!! They have a built in derailleur cable stop. From ~1977 into the early 1980's lot of mid range and up Motobecanes came with those dropouts.


OH! I guess I'm being too literal/technical DOH ???

Yes, I have a wheel with alloy nipples. I was having an issue with even tensioning the rear wheel on my Miyata, and that one blew. I'm going to have to strip the wheel down, check the hoop for quality. If the rim is still up to par I'll slap some brass ones on and rebuild. I'm thinking my rim is nearing the big recycling bin in the sky.
