I also saw this bike on Ebay, I was wondering if it was even legitimate. the badly placed seat tube decal and the shimano rear derailleur had me wondering. stickers   Posted: Fri Dec 13, 2013 5:45 am Frenchbuilt Joined: 18 Apr 2007 Posts: 443 I think its OK. I by chance bought a bike from her before (seller) and pretty honest and usually knows what she has. I don't think anyone was playing around with reproduction decals when these seem to have been applied. I have boxes of old parts from Gitane factory and there were lots of japanese derailleurs and cranks so anything was possible and then again many people upgraded. This bike usually came with Sugino cranks, Simplex derailleurs. Mafac competition brakes and some sort of spanish saddle. At least thats what I have seen.
