Considering selling my 58cm 1980 Gitane Tricolore.

It is made from either Vitus 971 or 980. There's a sticker of each kind.

It was NOS when I bought it. The anodizing is hardly scraped through on the rims. It had the original tires in relatively new condition when I bought it

The groupset is a Spidel Super Professional.

I have put some Atom pedals on it.

Some of the cable attachment hardware was missing from the rear brake and the stem and bars had to be replaced because they put a 25mm bar in a 25.4mm stem and they scored one another. The brake hoods are getting a bit dry. The flipper who had it before me changed the brake cables.

Anyone interested? Any thoughts?

I am not in the market for one but I would recommend you post pictures, if you want to spark any interest.

I don't know what I should ask.

Darn that's a nice bike! I've been watching it on eBay.
What was I saying about not being in the market for one? Wink

(JK - it's not my size anyway but good luck with your sale.)

Thanks much.

I relisted with a start price because ebay charges around seven dollars for a reserve auction and it could add up week after week. http://www.ebay.com/itm/320934610013?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

There's nothing wrong with the bike, but it is a bit small and I just don't find myself wanting to ride it too badly.
