FS: Cycles Toussaint Velo Routier 60CM (Los Angeles)

[Carl Groner]

Hey all,

LMK if anyone has interest in a Cycles Toussaint Velo Routier frameset in 60CM. This is a 650b, centerpull brake specific frameset and I don't believe it works with canti/side pull brakes (someone please correct me if I have it wrong). 

The frameset was assembled ~ 2-3 years ago, only ridden a couple of times and then the parts moved to another bike. It just wasn't really for me due to the frame being a bit too big and me just not riding "road style" bikes much more these days.

There are 2 small defects/dents in the top tube by the headset. It's not clear to me if the more noticeable one is a dent or paint defect, and behind that there is a small dent on the side of the TT. I've circled both in one of the pictures linked below, but the rear one is hard to get to show up. Besides that just the normal minor wear and tear I'd expect on a bike that's been built up and taken apart.

The frameset includes a Nitto s83 seatpost, VO headset and unknown Bottom Bracket (i believe it's a Tange, whatever my lbs had at the time). I'll also throw in the slick Thomson seatpost clamp, but you'll need a new clamp bolt if you choose to use it.

If you're interested in the frameset I also have a set of Mafac "Raid" brakes, which fit this frameset. I'd rather sell these with the frameset and won't sell separately unless the frameset goes first. Along with the brakes there are some misc. brake parts I purchased from Rene Herse which I'll throw in (see picture in link below). The pads have also been replaced with the Kool stop "Cross Pad" canti pads which seem to be popular on this group.

$300 for the frameset, seatpost, headset. ($250 without seatpost)

Add $100 more for a set of Mafac "Raid" brakes, including the dia-compe spring adapters you'll need to make those work.

I'd really prefer to not have to box/ship this, so local L.A. pickups are preferred (Highland Park/S Pasadena area)
