Französische Fahrradkomponenten und -hersteller sind zum Teil heutzutage noch aktiv am Markt und produzierten und produzieren hochqualitative Bauteile. In der folgenden Tabelle sind diese ohne Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit aufgelistet. Wenn es einen Artikel in der WikiPedalia gibt, ist dieser verlinkt. Alternativ wird auf die Homepage oder weiterführende Informationen im Internet weiterverlinkt.
| Marke | Bemerkung |
|---|---|
| AGDA | Einfache Ledersättel, sie gehörten zur Standardausstattung des Peugeot UO-8. |
| Atom | Naben mit Hinterradtrommelbremsen, die bei älteren Tandems beliebt waren. Atom stellt auch annehmbare Pedale her. (Wurde von Sachs aufgekauft?) |
| Ava | Lenker und Vorbauten. Bitte nicht einsetzen, weil sie breche können. Stellten auch Felgen her. |
| Christophe | Pedalhaken und Pedalriemen |
| CLB | Bremsen, die nicht sogot wie Mafacs waren. CLB stellt außerdem selbsverstärkende Mittelzugbremsen her, die so ähnlich SCott Pedersen Canitlever Bremsen funktionierten. Für Fahrer, die es gerne leichtgewichtig und sicher mögen, stellte CLB sogar Bremszüge aus Aluminium her! |
| Cyclo | French Cyclo was a different company from British Cyclo (Benelux).
Early touring derailer mounted to chainstay, used dual cable and external tension spring (There is one on the René Hérse pictured above.) Cyclo Pans freewheel kit was a quick-change freewheel, the first to use splined sprockets like a modern freewheel of cassette. The fact that you could change ratios without having to remove the freewheel from the hub was a big deal in the '60's |
| Excell | Good-quality frame tubing. |
| Huret | Allvit derailer, the first inexpensive parallelogram-type derailer(early '60's).
Duopar super-wide-range derailer, used two parallelograms to extend chain take-up. Very hot stuff in the late '70's. Jubilee, the lightest derailer ever marketed. Multito cyclometer was the first quiet cyclometer, using a rubber belt drive instead of the older star-wheel design. Bought by Sachs, name changed to Sachs. Then Sachs was bought by SRAM, name changed to SRAM. |
| Hutchinson | Tires. Still in business. Its 1970's products were of poor quality, but reportedly they have improved considerably since then. |
| Idéale | Fine leather saddles, similar to Brooks. Super-light models used flat aluminum rails. |
| Lapize | Toe straps--affiliated with Christophe. |
| Look | Ski binding company, invented the first practical clipless pedal, revolutionized the market.
High tech carbon fibre frames and disc wheels rarely seen in U.S. Special rear hub with strain-gauge power measuring unit. |
| Lyotard | Pedals. The Model 23 "Marcel Berthet" platform pedal was one of the most elegantly designed bicycle parts ever. This pedal is the easiest-entry toe-clip type pedal ever made, and is remarkably light, especially considering its all-steel construction. |
| Maillard | Hubs and freewheels. Absorbed into Sachs.
Helicomatic hub was an early cassette freehub. |
| Mafac | The best French bicycles of the 60's and early '70's all had Mafac brakes. Mafac made both centerpull calipers and cantilever brakes.
Some high-end French custom builders disassembled Mafac centerpulls, and brazed the pivots to the frame, turning them into what we now call a "U-brake" "MAFAC" is an acronym from: "Manufacture Auvergnoise de Freins et Accessoires pour Cycle (Manufacturer in the Auvergne of Brakes and Accessories for Cycles.) |
| Mavic | The number 1 French rim maker. In the '90's they diversified into other components. Their hubs and cranksets are highly regarded.
"MAVIC" is an acronym from "Manufacture d'Articles Vélocipediques Idoux et Chanel. (Idoux and Chanel were the names of the partners who founded the company in 1890.) First company to market an electronically controlled derailer. New ownership has led to retrenchment; now Mavic makes rims and wheels, as well as some clothing and bicycle computers.. |
| Maxicar | Very good hubs. Maxicar drum brakes were fitted on the finest French tandems, they had large enough flanges that spokes could be replaced without removing the freewheel. |
| Michelin | Tires. The Michelin Élan was the first modern high-performance clincher. |
| Nervar | Cranksets. These had a different bolt circle from any other. |
| Nervex | Lugs. Ornate Nervex lugs were very popular on high end frames until the mid-'70's, when simpler styles came into fashion. |
| Normandy | Normandy hubs were supplied on almost all '70's bike boom imports. Normandy also made freewheels, and, I believe, was the first to make a freewheel that used a splined remover. |
| Phillipe | Handlebars and stems, good quality. |
| Prugnat | Lugs. Best known for simple, Italian-style lugs. |
| Rigida | Rims. Steel Rigida rims with textured braking surfaces were standard equipment on mid-line bike boom bikes. |
| Robergel | Spokes. the "3 Étoiles" (3 stars) model was widely considered the finest spoke available, until DT came along. |
| Sachs | A German conglomerate, has absorbed much of the French industry, including Atom/Maillard, Huret, and Sedis. |
| Sedis | The world's best chain, bought by Sachs which was bought by SRAM. |
| Simplex | The Simplex Prestige derailer was very hot stuff in 1960. It was largely made of plastic. This model was being supplied unchanged until the mid-'70's when Sun Tour blew it away with a more modern design. This was the beginning of the end of French bicycle exports to the U.S. Simplex also made quick-release skewers and high-end microadjustable seatposts. Simplex "Rétrofriction" shift levers have a cult following, and are regarded as the finest non-indexing shift levers ever. |
| Stronglight | Innovative maker best known for cranks and headsets. Stronglight pioneered the use of roller bearings in these parts. The headsets are still quite popular. |
| Super Champion | Excellent rims. The Model 58 clincher was for years the top choice for loaded touring. It was the first common aluminum-alloy clincher rim with parallel sidewalls, allowing brakes to work smoothly even on out-of-round wheels.
The "Arc en Ciel" ("Rainbow") tubular rim was the state-of-the-art for lightweight racing rims. Super Champion is now a division of Wolber. |
| TA | France's top maker of cranks. The "Cyclotouriste" was for many years the triple chainwheel set-up. TA also used to own the market for bottle cages and shoe cleats. They also make (or at least used to make) special orthopedic pedals with interchangeable cages to accommodate riders with one leg longer than the other. |
| Time | Clipless pedal/shoe systems, the first to feature "float" |
| Velox | Patch kits, the world's best rim tape. ("Fond de jante" is French for "bottom of rim".) |
| Vitus | France's leading manufacturer of high-quality frame tubing. Also a major builder of frames from aluminum and carbon fiber. |
| Wolber | Primarily a tire manufacturer; purchased Super Champion's rim business. |
| Zéfal | The world's leading pump manufacturer. The Zéfal HP was the first frame pump that would give satisfactory performance with unmodified Schrader valves. |
