pea green, to be more specific

fronch.

It’s like a Kilo TT, only older.

Don’t all conversions have a rear derailleur hanger by definition?

i’m wondering if i should get somehting like this instead of a scrambler . . . .that frame has character.

I would check that carefully. There is a spot on the stay that could be nasty. As with all French bikes, check the threading before you start dumping the money into it. It pays to know what you are getting into.

yeah it’s french.

it’s $50 atm 4 days left though

this looks sketchy

Finding a bottom bracket will be hard, at least until Velo-Orange introduces their new French thread BB, which won’t be until spring.

No, some older bikes used an an adapter claw to hold the derailleur

and that bike is no where near worth the hassle.

That frame has been sitting in someone’s storage shed for twenty years. That’s not the only rust on there, I promise.

Pass.

not once they get cut off

would not buy. $50 for (that) french frame/ no fork is way too high.

Many conversions had the bolt-on type derailleur hanger originally.

thanks guys.

^ yeah mine didnt have a hanger. it was 80s, but it was a budget bike.

my schwinn had a bolt on rear d because it was a really old frame.

That frame’d be alright for $10 or something. Nothin’ more.
