The only “French” bike part?

Every other part on my bike seems to just have a regular name. Fork, shock, handlebars, etc. but whenever I say “derailleur” I sound SO fancy! Maybe instead of packing trail snacks I’ll bring a charcuterie plate next time! 😂

Seriously though. I’ve been riding bikes for years and I still can’t remember. 😬
