About this product
This is a vintage 1964 Jeunet Franche-Comte Touring Road Bike, featuring a large 58cm lugged steel frame made in France, in a striking red color.

Our take
Stepping back in time with this 1964 Jeunet Franche-Comte is quite an experience. The French-made lugged steel frame in red is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship, providing that classic, smooth steel ride. It's great to see it comes with practical features like an adjustable seat and a kickstand. While the 27-inch wheels and downtube shifters are certainly vintage, they contribute to its authentic feel. Center-pull caliper brakes are period-correct. It's a bike for someone who appreciates the history and character of vintage cycling, willing to embrace a ride that's different from modern bikes.
