Beautiful french bike used as display on PBP

When I arrived at one of the last controls on Paris-Brest-Paris this year, I was shocked to see this beautiful french bike tied to a barrier as a decoration. Sure, I have seen other bikes placed throughout the route(towns are judged on their display and support of PBP), but this seemed different. This was a 1950s French blue ladies bike with Lefol fenders, dual Luxor le Paen 65 headlight, 650b wheels. I want that bike. For an instant, I thought about how I might get that bike, but that was a sleepless PBP thought. It is similar to our LaPeyle we have, seen below in an artsy Iphone picture.
Here is a video that our bike was used in, of my friend's band, Sun Airway, and directed by my friend Ricardo of Klip Collective.

Music videos that feature bicycles

Frontier Psychiatrist recently did a review of the Sun Airwaves video that used our French Lapeyle bicycle, and just posted some indie rock videos that featured bicycles prominently.





This video was not on the list, but it features my friend Spank Rock, so I must include it.

French LaPeyre bike we rented

A nice early 1950s French city bike with early Mafac cantilever brakes. Beautiful.
