i think the guy who designed this ate a real bad batch of mushrooms....

i signed up partly because of this thread ,i have thoughaly enjoyed, been looking and working my way through it for days now and its still great, so far...there is for sure some sexy looking machines on here! but i dont know how this old girl can be attract any unlawful criticism , she was built in 1910 as far as i know, that should cut her some slack eh (you should look so good 100 years later!), the double truss bar was considered a pretty nice feature (strong too) compared to other makers with plain straight double bars, and still looks good now i reckon, the double chain stays look cool, the extra seat stay doesnt look so cool (it wasn't on their other models) but its there for a purpose, to strengthen, the other side doesnt have any stays at all, designed for a purpose , so the tyre can be changed in a road race quickly, quicker than everyone else at least! the front fork is a lefty fork for the same reason, so it can be changed out in the tour de france or similar race i presume (its a french 1910 bike)
i reckon this bike has real charm and style, not as pure sexy as we are used to seeing in 2010, but in 1910...WOW

maybe the cranks are super long like 175?
doesnt look like a particularly large frame either.

maybe its just how the shot was taken. perspective and all thatedit : wait a sec the frame does look quite large..

It looks 10/12.7 smaller than usual because of the 10mm pitch instead of 1/2".
It is 10/12.7 smaller. -

@ every one who doesn't know what DA10 stand for - look up Dura Ace 10mm pitch
@ edscoble - Ed, it was a genuine question, really!.. =))
It is a bottle opener... I found that pic while on a hunt for wall mounts...
