Velo Orange do French threaded headsets and bottom bracket (not that you'd need them as the ones fitted seem fine) . The trickier thing to source are stems as these are 22mm rather than the standard 22.2mm. Sheldon Brown suggests that it's not a problem to sand the extra 0.2mm off a standard stem.
More information here:

Let me know if want any more info or pictures

Tempting...
Not too sure about the implications of French thread- how hard is it to find parts?
