I had a 1973 back then. Great ride! One of the bikes I'd buy again if I came across it. (mine was a white 21"). The year I had came with Mafac Comp brakes, which at that time I poo pooed but now realize were pretty darn nice. Very much worth the $250 (used) I spent then. These bikes are not very common and represent some of the best production French in that era. Andy
