Mecacycle Turbo - St Etienne France
The Turbo range was very popular in France, in the 80s, as were twin seat tubed frames in general, with examples being made by GELIANO, CACEG, and AMR, and Motobecane. Surprisingly the cyclo-cross version was particularly popular due to the fact that the mud and crud did not lodge between the tyre and the rear of the seat tube...a very free-running design. In spite of looking quite fragile, very few Turbos appear to have broken. The manufacturer claimed that the twin-tubed structure conferred a greater rigidity to the frame. from here- http://www.flickr.com/photos/cyclecrank/

The Fabulous world of Cycling - Volumes 1-11
Published by Winning Magazine an annual, 1982-92 The closest cycling fans got to a Christmas annual. All the year’s big races told in words and pictures, accompanied by an acerbic question and answer session with Eddy Merckx, who always sounds frustrated at the failings of the modern riders. It’s as if he wants to shout: “It’s easy. Why can’t they just do what I did?” Many nice photos.
( i only have two more to collect!)
