First off , I'm new to LFGSS so greetings to everyone! It's great to see so many people so passionate about bikes.
Last year I restored an old Gitane Interclub that I bought from ebay. It needed a lot of work but now rides beautifully and has served me well on my Bristol to Bath commute.
As much as I love this bike the frame is not particuarly light as the Interclub is an entry level model . I would like to upgrade the frame to a Tour de France or Super Corsa model which are usually Reynolds 531 and often have chromed rear stays. If possible I am looking for a frame with the same decals and metallic green colour, which I believe is called a candy apple paint finish (see attached pic of my current bike)
Does anyone have either a frame or complete bike for sale in 56-58cm ?
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 >
Mention another user by @username
For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:
```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
