Hi, I am building up this bike and it will be electric shift (early Mektronic)




I bought only the frame and its smaller twin. Still don't know the year any one have idea?

Style wise, this is a very pretty bike with interesting "laid back look"

Parts in build include:

Shimano RX 100 brakes and front derailleur.

Mavic Ksyrium Elite rear wheel with 9 speed Shimano HG cassette.

Mavic BB (non threaded) with Starfish cranks and TA small ring.

Maillard CNC pedals.

The 59 cm Frame is Vitus Triple butted "GTI"

Headset ?

To Finish I am looking for another 650 Mavic Front wheel with "Pneu " not sew up.

And some special toe clips for the Maillard CNC.

The second frame is a 57 cm and exactly the same as the one I am building.





If someone in France is interested in buying it, it is for sale. Stronglight headset, Mavic BB. Some scratches but no dents and straight.
Can bring to N. California in 4 months on next visit but will cost around 70$ to put in as extra baggage

Make offer please

Thanks, Dan

So back she goes into storage this nice frame. Only selling because it is too small for me.

Final test. Still need one Maillard clip.
Funny gearing for a time trial it climbs hills and shifts electronic.

This is my second Mektronic set up and it shifts perfectly even with small front chainwheel.

Several Mektronic systems on e bay and I recommend it.
