Picked up this very rough Daccordi. Has some interesting parts. Does anyone recognise the cranks or seatpost?

Yup Stronglight Seatpost quiet rare

Were made to fit French Altec Frames like mine...

and another



they are a quill type

Stronglight cranks too? This is a really interesting D'accordi. I wonder if it's actually something else?

What's written on the rear drop outs and do you know anything about it's past?

RD looks like Triomphe

Daccordi stamped on drop outs. Know nothing of it's past other than it has had a very hard life. The cable guides have been ground off! Here's a pic of the decals.

Thanks Jim. I can't find reference for the crankset but will keep looking. The drive side crank has a F7 stamp and the left has a L5 stamp. Noticed that the rear wheel hub is Pelissier. Quite a strong French influence.

Sorry if this is rehashing an old post, but I just bought a virtually identical Daccordi in marginally better shape and I’m looking for information on it. Why was the Reynolds 501 sticker on the Daccordi frame? I removed mine hoping to find a Columbus SL tag underneath but there was nothing. Any info would be great.

I’m going out on a limb, but maybe it’s built with Reynolds 501 tubes?
