Dr. Frankenstein built?
 
Just received an Ebay purchase of an unknown name French(?) bike. It has: Nervex lugs; Huret dropouts (one front stamped Campagnolo but looks exactly like the Huret); outer diameter of tubing is exactly like my French Bertin. It has not a single French thread. Furthermore, the headset lower race seat is 27mm, Japanese, not 26.4, European; the steering tube seems to be 22.2, British, not 22.0, French. Last thing, the fork crown appears to be Nervex also. So, what the hell do I have? Any light that someone can shed on the misfit would be appreciated. BTW, I built it up and it rides just as great as a French frame does ride, IMHO. Thanks.
