I've met Brent and I've seen this bike - seller and bike are both top drawer. Some tall person needs to buy this and remove the temptation from me. :)
GLWS, Brent. |

I think you're confused, YOU need to buy this so WE are not tempted. ;)

What is the stand-over height (distance from top of top tube to the ground)?

That bike was the inspiration for the paint job currently on my Bob Jackson.
Le Juene used to be fairly popular, but not too popular, around Central Park and New York City in general. Some were NICE!, others were less expensive but all were red, deep red. Although it was many years later and on the other coast, when it came time to repaint Bob, red it was. I am so very sorely tempted. |
To echo the others, gorgeous bike!
|
Nice bike and it sounds like it is going to a good home! This forum is great. That bike would’ve been double that$$$ on eBay.

Bike arrived today. Get a bike from Brent, it'll be properly boxed!
This is my first high end French bike. I can hardly wait for it to dry out around here so I can take it for a ride. It's 2cm taller than what I typically ride, which is proper for a French bike, no? It's real, and it's spectacular. |

A good seller moves a good bike to a good buyer, and my wallet is not impacted in any way. |
