  • Simplex Racing Gears
    Simplex Racing Gears Gears, Riders and Machines 25 March 2015 Lucien Juy – Founder of Simplex • Owned bicycle shop in Dijon • Made his first derailleur in 1928 – named it (and his company) Simplex as a bit of a dig at the competition whose products were thought overly complicated. • Prolific innovator – many Simplex patents over the course of his lifetime and now widely adopted by most manufacturers. • Attached his name to many of his products, e.g. Juy51, LJ23, Super LJ, JuyRecord Key Dates • 1928 – First Simplex derailleur • 1933 – Production 40,000 units. 4 French National Championship wins • 1936 – Antonin Magne wins World Championship, giving name to Champion du Monde derailleur • 1947 – Jean Robic wins first post-war Tour de France, giving name to Tour de France gear • 1962 – Plastic! • 1990s – Gear production ceases Champion du Monde Gear • Single roller gear with chain tension provided by sprung arm. • Sprung ‘plunger’ operation – spring pushes chain towards larger cogs (lower gears) and lever operated cable pulls chain towards smaller cogs (higher gears) • Produced from 1930s to 1940s • Disadvantaged by poor ‘chain wrap’ over cogs – greater chance of chain slipping or ‘jumping’ over cogs. Limited “range”. Helyett with Champion du Monde Gear • Very similar to the bikes used by the Helyett team in the late 1930s. Notable riders include René Vietto who rode for Helyett until 1944 and had his portrait on the seat tube on some Helyett Spéciale models Rene Vietto – French Folk Hero • Good racing cyclist – leader of Helyett team in 1930s and late 1940s • Famous for sitting by the roadside – doing well in the 1934 Tour de France but compelled to hand his wheel over to French team leader Antonin Magne who subsequently won the race.

    ATTACHMENT G TO THE AFFIDAVIT OF BETSY ANDREU Saddled with suspicion;Cycling;Tour de France;Interview;Lance Armstrong Source: Sunday Times Issue Date: Sunday July 08, 2001 Byline: David Walsh . Story Text: Cyclist Lance Armstrong is the overwhelming favourite to win his third Tour de France. At the American's invitation, David Walsh went to see him to discuss one subject - doping He earns $8m a year. Endorsements run to another $5m. He once held a press conference in New York and the billionaire Donald Trump turned up to hear him speak. Nowadays, he charges twice as much as former president Bill Clinton for speaking engagements and when not recounting history, he is creating it. Lance Armstrong is his name. He is the world's best cyclist. Yesterday, he launched his bike from a ramp in Dunkirk and set out on the Tour de France. He is favourite to win for the third consecutive time and become only the fifth cyclist to do so. It is not solely success that draws us to Armstrong but also what his achievements symbolise. Less than five years ago he was stricken with testicular cancer that spread to his lungs and brain. Surgeons suggested he might not live but they didn't know their patient. Armstrong has been to hell and back. First to good health, then to the famed yellow jersey. His spirit and good drugs enabled him to make the first part of the journey. But for two years there has been endless speculation about Armstrong, his remarkable recovery and his relationship with drugs, not just those taken to kill the cancer but also those taken by cyclists to help them compete.

Direct jumps to the catalogues in this file: 1948 1952 1960 1971 1979 01 René Herse Catalogues Collection General Info: In this documentation you will find all the information I have collected over the last years regarding this topic. It has scans of 107 catalogue pages (91 with Rebour drawings), 6 cover scans as well as scans of some adverts, letters and the order sheet, accompanied by lots of texts consisting of French transcriptions, English translations and further informations, especially dating of the catalogues. As I don't have (and don't want to have) a personal homepage or blog, I thought Flickr is a good place to share, especially because it keeps the uploaded image files in its original format and quality. That's a good thing if you've spent countless hours to produce good files. Hopefully Flickr will keep its services for many years to come. René Herse catalogues were published in 1948, 1952, 1960 (with extra sheets 1962 and new cover 1964), 1971 and in 1979. The first two were small booklets, the others were loose–leaf type, sheets printed on both sides, wrapped in an envelope. To my knowledge these should be all catalogues ever published by René Herse. If you own or know a catalogue with (perhaps slightly) different content than in my scans, I'd be very grateful if you'd let me know.
