What's the vintage parts availability like over there? Or are you just going to wing that? I bought a Stronglight crank a while back and have got to tap it so I can fit English pedals

Getting parts like brakes, cranks, derailleur stuff etc. is pretty easy to find on French eBay. I tend to get other bits from the Uk , "Bankrupt bike parts" etc.
In this area there arn't any specialist bike shops that l am aware of just bloody great big Decathlon stores. Winging it is the order of the day !!
