So I may sell my Gitane. A bit too big for me (53 I think), and really too similar to my Geliano to make any sense.
Specs on Velospace: http://velospace.org/node/7580

£350 for the whole thing. May want to keep the pedals though.

The saddle and tape are a bit ripped, and there are a few paint chips but overall it's a nice and tight bike.

Hi Yorgo

Sorry, my bad - I only just tracked down this thread again - I wish that there was some way on here to see when you get a reply to a whisper!

Is it still for sale? I'll be honest, it's not exactly what I'm looking for, but it's damn nice all the same - I would definitely like to check it out. Do you now what the spacing is? 100mm/120mm? I'd need to change those tubs out if I was to ride it every day.

Are you racing tomorrow night?

I did go riding - I have a room in a house in Austria for the season and was there for the last week, shot some photos and had a lot of fun. I'm going to Russia next week for a Nissan Freeride comp (shooting, not riding!)

Thanks

Ian

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
