Hello people, I can definitely need some help identifying a bicycle I bought recently!
A few days ago I had the opportunity to buy an old (don't know how old yet) french frame from the brand "Cottereau". There seems to be hardly any record of this company on the internet so I though maybe one of you has some information regarding the bike and its age. Any help is greatly appreciated because I want to try to keep the bike as original as possible staying true to its era.

Thanks in advance!

There goes a rideable version of my Courtois.
so 1978 Bernard CARRE frame,
went from huret to Simplex gears,
Gipiemme cranks and pedals
Universal model 77 brakes and DA brake levers(until i get fresh universal hoods)
a saddle my arse loves
a longer 3ttt stem and Gimondi-like ITM drops.might add later lower gears (52X14 are good lookin',but i'm more a spinner than a pusher) and a clincher wheelset shall i use it for commuting duties.
BR,
Marguerite DA
