I am looking at one soon but the owner can't give me very many details except it needs tires, it's dirty and needs work as well.

I found some info that says it might be an Accordo with Tange 900 tubing, or maybe a LeMans.

I don't know if it's a worthy candidate if it needs a lot of work. It might be fun to ride as I have never been on one.

Thanks for any info.

The best advice I can give is to go and check it out. If you are in the market for one, likely someone else is too so don't dally.

I sold an Accordo Mixte this summer. I fixed it up and put a rack and some N' roads on it, and it sold in a hearbeat. It was a nice enough bike, but a LeMans could be even better.

The Accordo I sold had a Champion Tange chromoly frame, Diacompe 500 brake calipers, Suntour AR derailleurs, and a Sugino “RT” alloy double crank:

+1 You need to go check it out. If it is a deal, someone will scoop it up.

I've got a Lemans 12 mixte in the fleet myself. Note, mine is not original, I bought it as a frameset, and built it up with a donor bike.

Wow, Both of those bikes are very nice. Great job. I better get my rear end in gear. Thanks for the info.

I concur.
