Description
Lovely old road bike. In pretty good condition - brand new pedals, good working order, perfectly rideable as it is
I bought it as a project to turn into a singlespeed but really it's a bit small for me (I'm 6'1 and I'm used to riding a bigger bike)
Gears, with levers on the down tube, work fine so no need to change it, though it would also make a good singlespeed if you want to do that
It's not got the best saddle but perfectly useable if you don't want to upgrade it (I didn't)
Gitane is a classic French bike brand, ridden to nine Tour de France victories between 1962 and 1984
Really nice purply-blue colour with yellow accents, and lots of chrome
Frame size = 20 inches, measured vertically from top tube to bottom bracket
