Jo Routens has the same following as Alex Singer and Rene Herse.......Not to be confused with his son JP Routens who still produces cycles.

The price does seem optimistic but 21 offers shows the demand by 'collectors'

Its even made its own Classic Rendezvous page:

Cheers Rob, I was mixing him up a bit with his son.
French Randonneur's are a whole new world of intrigue, especially the early ones. Fascinating bikes.
