Gitane measured their frames from the center of the cranks to the top of the set tube. Your bike is a 54cm size frame. I've only ever seen one other Super Corsa in the Criterium Violet color. It looks very nice. Here's some information from the Gitane Catalog: http://www.gitaneusa.com/images/catalog/1970_pg11.jpg http://www.gitaneusa.com/images/catalog/1970_pg6.jpg Chas. thank you very much verktyg   Posted: Sat Sep 05, 2009 12:07 am longoria Joined: 03 Sep 2009 Posts: 4 Location: mexico by the way how much you think can value still conserve some items when i acquire, like levers shimano durace, supose are not original equipment, and rims mavic for tubes, not for tires.

How much is it worth? With these parts it's probably worth about $500 to $700 USD. seat post sr laprade stem montreal fiame italy group campagnolo cranks campagnolo pedals sr hubs campagnolo handlebar cinelli mod giro de italia brakes dia compe levers shimano durace rims mavic neumáticos tubulares The bike originally had Campagnolo NR pedals, and seat post with an Ideale 90 leather saddle. It probably had Mafac Completion center pull brakes. The stem and bars were Pivo brand. longoria wrote: Another dude, what means the EDA engraving on tube crank, i dont find serial number is that important? No entiendo "Another dude, what means the EDA engraving on tube crank"? The serial number is on the left dropout. It is not important. longoria wrote: its true sr and sugino are same? Sugino and SR (Sakae/Ringyo) were two different Japanese companies. They both made cranks and seatposts. They also made cranks for Suntour. SR merged with Suntour and went out of business. There is a new company in Taiwan, SR Suntour but it's not related to the old companies. Sugino still makes cranks in japan. longoria wrote: Some body interesting this bicycle?
