Mystery French gravel conversion



The frame has had a quality repaint so there's no evidence of make or model. All French threading and Simplex forged dropouts. The serial is stamped under the bottom bracket but there are numbers on the dropouts as well. Either 26.4 or 26.6 seatpost. The frame weighs about 1,900 grams. Metric tubing. As pictured with 700x35 and 700x40 on front, the angles measure 71.5 ht and 73.5 seat tube. Probably originally built for 27s.
