"French bicycles are often of very high quality, but they have their own
idiosyncracies and interchangeability problems. This article tries to point
out the pitfalls that you may run into in maintaining or upgrading a French
bicycle, and offers solutions to common problems.

In the great bike boom of the early-mid '70's, French bicycles were sold in
the U.S. in very large numbers, mostly low-end ten speeds with mild steel
frames, steel rims and cottered cranks. These low-end models are generally
not worth putting any money into, unless you have a strong sentimental
attachment to one. Such a bike can be suitable for use as a "beater" to ride
short distances, perhaps to the train station where you can lock it up
without worrying about theft.

Higher quality French bicycles, with cotterless cranks and aluminum rims are
usually worth restoring or upgrading. They are also often a good choice for
conversion for fixed-gear use. Unfortunately, some of the dimensions and
thread standards used on older French bicycles can make it difficult to find
suitable parts for repair or upgrading."

The above is from the Sheldon Brown web site page on French bicycles.
My first bicycle was a Gitane, a lower end model with the cottered cranks
and mostly steel components. I got it back in the 70's for $139. and it was
my only bike for quite a few years. In the course of owning it I gradually
began to replace every part on it because I wanted a lighter and faster
bike. In the process of doing this I learned all about French
"idiosyncracies and interchangeability problems", much to my dismay. But I
really loved that bike and I still have it.

The French are preeminent in the visual arts and so can often design very
good things indeed. However, this does not excuse them in the political
realm where they prove over and over again what dunces they are. The French
should copy the Italians more and forget about trying to emulate the
Americans, the English and the Germans. The French are more Latin than
Northern and it shows every time they attempt to reach for glory in the
political sphere. They should confine themselves to the arts like the
Italians do.

Aren't bicycles a little off topic for this thread?

The Germans have made a pretty decent internally-geared hub as well, though
it initially had a lot of problems. It could stand to have a couple more
gears, but who's complaining? (Please God, don't let them make a 16-speed
hub until I can afford it, OK?)

The French actually make one of the best aftermarket pistol grips for a
number of semi-autos. It's concave, so it fits the boney and fleshy parts
of the hand better, and it's thinner. But for some reason the company has a
German-sounding name: Trausch.

Lots of good French folk are on the right side of this thing, too, in spite
of their misleading press. The Van Gogh murder was something of a turning
point, not just for the Dutch. It'll get sorted out, or shorted out.

Not to disagree with the eminent Mr. Brown, but these issues were not
limited to French bicycles at that time. A French bike would have one
set of dimensions, say, for the BB, and Italian bike would have
something different, and so on. IIRC the British were famous for
having lots of thread standards in various transport related
industries.

Things are better now in some respects, but we still have to deal with
incompatibilbites between old and new stuff that are a result, to some
extent, of companies wanting us to buy new bikes, i.e. forced
obsolesence.

The Sheldon Brown article is nevertheless right on point though because
French bicycles were everywhere back in the 70's and Italian and British
bicycles were not. After the French bicycles came the Japanese bicycles. The
Italians and the Brits (except for Raleigh) were never much in the American
market. All the other European bicycles were no where. Dutch, German and
Austrian bicycles were rarities.

I think when the Japanese began their intrusion into the American market
that things began to settle down and we resolved on basically one set of
measurements. But I believe the French persisted on their own when everyone
else had more or less settled on the English system, thanks to the Japanese.
The French always go their own way. That is because they are severely
afflicted with hubris. It must go back to their glory days of the Sun King
and Emperor Napoleon.

Well, there are always lots of good folks who are on the right side of
things, but I go by what their governments do with respect to how they
conduct themselves with respect to the US. Europe has a tremendous problem
with their Muslim immigrants from North Africa and the Middle East and we
shall see how they are going to deal with them. Most European nations have a
much stronger central authority than does the US, and they can deal with
them if and when they want to.

My own feeling is that Europe will have to be struck by something on the
order of 9/11 before they wake up. Chirac is as bad as DeGaulle and
resembles him in every way. Because of the history of the past century, I
will NEVER look to Europe for any guidance on things political.

I believe the US should start playing off the various European nations
against one another. France is not our ally. We can write off Germany too if
need be. There are plenty of other European nations who hate both those
nations and we can ally ourselves with them over and against France and
Germany. There ought to be severe penalties for opposing the US in the
world. We need a much tougher foreign policy and should take the gloves off.
France should be made to pay for their treachery.

My first quality bicycle was a Peugeot P-8, which was an excellent value
for the money (ca. $240 in 1982). Not the greatest components and a bit
heavy (ca. 26-lbs/12 kgf), but the ride and handling was the equal or
better of many more expensive bicycles.

OBL is hiding from us. If he weren't hiding from us, he would be in our
hands or dead.

Saddam was nothing if not a terrorist. He in fact terrorized his own people
and the entire Middle East, including Kuwait which he invaded. The War on
Terrorism is largely being fought now in Iraq. It is far better that it be
fought there than here. We are on the verge of a great victory, but the g.d.
liberals would ****** defeat from the jaws of victory - as always.

I don't know exactly where Osama is right now. I think he's doing some
spelunking in the wilderness mountain area somewhere around the Pakistan -
Afghanistan border.

A much greater concern at the moment is this Jordanian terrorist named Abu
Musab al-Zarqawi who is operating in the Bagdad area. He especially enjoys
beheading people with a big hunting knife. I believe he beheaded two shite
muslims today and left them on the city sidewalks. A Catholic Archbiship
was kidnapped today and his fate is unknown. Osama just isn't the priority
at this moment. I can't understand why some democrats seem to think he
should be. It's as if they want our troops out of Iraq and off in the
nether regions of Afghanistan searching caves for Osama.

Because the control Iraq is critically important to radical Islam's goals.
They are desperate to stop the upcoming election and are attempting to do so
using the most brutal terror tactics imaginable. They must be stopped and
they will be stopped.

I agree that al-Zarqawi is a problem - his use of ISO 451-mm wheels in
contrary to the standardization of using the ISO 406-mm wheel size for
recumbents.

I think that Kool Stop "salmon" pads are in order here - much better
stopping power than stock black rubber pads.

So which pistol did you wind up getting? And why that one if I may ask?

Tonight's news has an item I overheard in passing about a family in N.J.
that had four killed ostensibly my Muslims upset by remarks someone in the
family had made in an internet chat room.

I'm thinking maybe I should upgrade my Browning 25 cal. Baby. It's a better
deterrent than rock throwing, but I thinking this might be the right time
for an upgrade.

I bought a camera from the Netherlands and it came wrapped in the front page
of a newspaper showing a full color shot of Van Gogh's body on the Amsterdam
street. He was shot nine times, stabbed multiple times, had his throat
slit, and a letter threaten the lives of others was attached to him by a
knife in the chest. It wasn't a pretty sight. He had been riding his bike.

A few flippant posts will work for the short run, but not the long run. Do
this too often and you will be marginalized beyond recognition. I do not
think you really want to be the clown of ARBR. Mr.Tom Sherman and Johnny
NoCom - kindred spirits? It might be better just to shut up if you haven't
anything to say.

Ed, the news said it was 58 degrees below 0 some where in Minnesota today.
You know if I was there I would be in the first vehicle with heater I could

Right you are Skip - as always! Anyone but me note how the liberals are
desperate for US policy to fail in Iraq. But then that fits in nicely with
their altogether treasonous nature and their hate America position. Kerry
was their true candidate all right.

Frank Patterson is out to lunch like all the liberals are these days. He
does not care anymore about OBL that he does about the man in the moon. As
far as Frank is concerned, we should never have invaded Iraq, nor
Afghanistan either. No, what we should have done is to have lobbed a few
missiles into the Middle East (somewhere) like Clinton did and let it go at
that. God! Do I ever hate liberals and their pusillanimous policies for
dealing with our enemies!

I hope there are no ARBR'ers paying any attention to the g.d. major media
anymore, especially CBS. Tune into Fox News if you want fair and balanced
reporting of what is happening in the world. Better yet, have a listen to
Rush Limbaugh if you want to know what to think about American foreign
policy as exemplified by Bush II. He will both inform you and entertain you.

Yes, the Muslims have nothing but murder in their hearts. I despise the lot
of them. I question if they are even civilized according to Western
standards. But even worse than the Muslims are the liberals who make excuses
for them. Why the hell don't the Muslims murder these g.d. liberals if they
want to kill somebody. I guess it may be because they know that liberals are
no threat to them and are potentially craven allies.

God, do I ever hate liberals - or did I already say that in another post.
