• Got a 1981 motobecane with original parts (70's Sachs huret stuff). Pretty much the same model as this (http://www.bikeforums.net/classic-vintage/560620-brooks-mixte-roadbike-sprung-unsprung.html) with the Hutchinson faux leather embroidered on bar tape. Needs a fair bit of work and some surface rust around the seattube. As far as I can remember it has weinman brakes, sachs huret gearing (only rear gears with a band on shifter). Takes 27" wheels (but the ones I have are rusted and the tyres are decrepit). Got a partial Gipiemme seatpost that fits (needs a clamp) but the whole thing needs a good going over. looking for £60 or a reasonable offer. You'd have to collect the thing from Epsom. it is in no way rideable at the moment though.
