  1. That site is where I started my search. 179 might be an option too. https://wheelsmfg.com/derailleur-hanger-179.html Switchback is a good recommendation. Thanks!
  2. The mystery deepens - I found this pic on an FB group about mystery frames and bikes, Looks very much like the same frame...now if only I can work out the rear hanger from this pic. Dedacciai seems to be the manufacturer and they've supplied to various other marques, including Bianci and Raleigh at different times. That must be the carbon Raleigh mentioned in the post above?
  3. I didn't know there were Daccordis branded as Raleigh? Do you have more info about this? Would love to see an example.
  4. Thanks for the feedback and comments. From what I have been able to figure out so far, is that it seems to be an Italian frame; perhaps a 2002-2006 pinarello prince or a daccordi fibra or something like that. The pinarello prince seems to have had a carbon seat stay but an alu chainstay, where as this has both of them as carbon. That seems to be similar to the Daccordi but the welds look neater on this frame. Now my bigger question, is why they would have rebranded it in this way? I have seen pics of a few of the latter leJuenes and they all seem to be some kind of rebranded Pinarello. As I understand FDT was the SA agent for Pinarello so it sort of tracks, but seem like something Pinarello wouldn't sanction? Anyone have any theories? The top one here definitely looks like a Pinarello. The bottom black one, looks the same as my frame. I'm still no closer to find out which rear hanger I need, but at least the mystery is providing for a potentially interesting story.
  5. I recently bought a "new" second-hand Lejeune frame, which I intend to build so I can get back into road cycling. The frame does not appear to ever have been used, and the seller's story was that her husband bought it when dutoitcycles closed down, but never got around to building it. I'm trying to find information about the frame, so that I can properly plan a build so I was wondering if any of the bike nerds on here might be able to shed some light on it. In particular, I would love to know what rear derailleur hanger it needs, what width wheels it would take, and some indication of age so that I can try to match the components to the era. Here's what I know so far: - it's dutoitcycles bike (top-tube is branded as such), and seems to be part of the range when they relaunched the brand sometime in the 2000s - it's an aluminium frame, with a carbon rear triangle and an evo carbon fork. It appears FDT is no longer contactable so asking direct is no an option. I'd love to hear from anyone who knows about these bikes or who can help point me in the right direction.
