SOLD 1985 Gitane Champion White & Yellow Bike // 56cm steel frame // 2x6 speed // New parts // SOLD

SOLD SOLD SOLD

Hello everyone!

I have just brought this bike back from my project pile in France and sorted it out this weekend.

This is a lovely 1985 Gitane Champion in 56cm (seat tube and top tube, both centre to centre). This will fit someone from 5ft9 to 5ft11.

Very versatile bike - it has clearance for 32mm tyres and mudguard eyes so great for the city/commuting/the odd ride out.

It is in great shape, all parts have minimal wear.

Spec:

• Tubing is Gitane Chromoly, with chrome forks.
  Both stem and seatpost move freely, headset & BB have no play, wheels have been trued.
  
• Weimann Tyre 500 brakes
  
• Solida 52 42 chainset with Lyotard Rat Trap pedals
  
• Sachs Huret DT shifters & derailleurs
  
• 25.8mm ATAX seatpost (ABS plastic with alloy insert) with yellow Mundialita saddle.
  
• Wheels are 700c clinchers
  
• Tyres are S 28chwalbe Pro One TT gumwall tyres in 700c x 28mm
  
  

I have just fitted new aero brake levers (TRP RL SSR replicas), new inner/outer brake cables, new bar tape and near new tyres.

The tyres are some of the fastest 28mm tyres available on the market at present - they cost £110 for the pair at Sigma

I have also given the bike a look over - it all works as it should, no play or issues - it is ready to ride away and be enjoyed.

I am after £250-> SOLD FOR £220 for the bike.

Test rides from New Cross SE14 are very welcome
