£82 well spent yesterday - a cheap local bike, Gillen were based somewhere in the 'burbs of Paris.
Largely 1st gen Campy Chorus save for the Mavic cranks & BB, KKT pedals and retrofriction shifters.
Shame the fork is pretty rusty as the rest is in good nick but hopefully it will come up nicely. Worryingly there's one large patch of serious rust behind the brakes, would be sad to have to splurge on a replacement.
Other than that a quick clean, some new cables and it ought to ride nicely (well, it already does). I just know I'm gonna have to get some 1st gen Chorus cranks now though seeing as the group is nigh on complete.
