Tubing is best, full Reynolds 531 with sticker on the seat tube or down tube (year dependent) and 531 stickers on fork blades, chrome socks front and rear. Simplex dropouts. Lugs and colors varied over the course of production and cranks were Stronglight 93 and then 99 but various French components otherwise; Mafac brakes varied by model over the years, as did the Normandy hubs and Simplex derailleurs.
