This thread is one I started about one I purchased a few years back for the Clunker Challenge. This specific post has all the various links I could find, as well as a thumbnail history of the brand. They only came into the U.S. in the early 70s, the bulk of them during the crunch '72-73 period when distributors were scouring the globe for bikes to sell during the great boom. They're actually respectable bikes from a regional builder in Grenoble, France.

I like mine, but a pending move has mine going up for sale.
