frame appears to have begun life as an early 1970's Lejeune and has been the recipient of a good deal of reworking in addition to a fork replacement

the under bottom bracket cable routing, water bottle mounts, braze-on front mech, shift lever braze-ons are all additions

in the first image we can see it shows the Lejeune cable housing guide on the drive side chainstay for the rear mech

Lejuene made extensive use of the Prugnat 62/d lug pattern at this epoch

original fork would have worn a Vagner flat top crown and Simplex forged ends

appears to have been manufactured as model Ref. 101

mfr catalogue page dated 1971-72:

​​​​​​

note that it yet wears its original Stronglight model 93 chainset, Lyotard model 45CA pedals and MAFAC Racer brakeset
