I'll be scouring this thread when I get home from work, just posting now as I'm really excited to be the new owner of this bike: http://www.lfgss.com/post2658285-8.html
I know very little about Gazelle's but I would like to tweak her; changing the tape, saddle, pedals, cables and blocks for a start. I'm also wondering whether the Shimano groupset should really be replaced with Campag? I did consider converting to STIs but think I'll keep everything traditional now. I can't tell if the colour is ivory or off-white though?
Also, I was wondering if anyone has done any touring on their Gazelle and what kind of set-up they had? I'm only thinking France and probably not camping so not heavy duty...
