Several new members to the forum have brought up questions about the proper components and specifications for their Gitanes.

Well. this link to the League Of Cycling Purity may be useful for clarifying some of these questions:

Thanks Chas for the useful link. My Gitane comes pretty close. It's got 27" tires. If I lose the cages on the hub bearings and swap the Shimano shift levers for the Campy levers on my Trek I should be OK. Well, the bike would. I wouldn't, not being a subject of the Queen. I suppose in Florida I'm on a permanent jungle expedition so the nylon straps on the toe clips are OK.

Hmmmm. I've got the wife, but no children. I'm thinking that I should seriously get some of those mistresses and servants mentioned in the regulations. I don't care if they have bikes or not. Twisted Evil
