Those older french made carbon Look frames were/are so nice to ride.
To be honest, the 2x7 speed 'groupset' fitted on the bike was a bit shit and heavy - 105 chainset / Suntour Accurist RD / Shimano Santé FD / Maillard 7 speed freewheel / Simplex steel DT shifters.
The 1992 catalogue can be found here:

I agreed that it would have looked better modernised (a la @Roboto ), perhaps with a 105 5800 11 speed compact groupset.
Anyway, built it for a friend would wanted a singlespeed so that's that done for now. He has all the original parts so the case isn't lost!
