  So I have a dilemma on my hands...

  Just got my hands on a lovely 1979 Gazelle (Champion Mondial, A frame) which I'm planning on turning into my new commute bike. Unfortunately, for me and the bike, some fool of a previous owner has gone to town with an angle grinder and taken off a fair few braze-ons (top tube brake cable and shifter bosses) which has then caused the tubing underneath to become exposed and start to rust (see pics attached).

  Do I repaint the whole thing to stop it falling into disrepair? Do I touch it up with a new lacquer coat? Has anyone else had a similar problem?

  Damn, that's one fine bike. And I don't usually like big frames.

  Pity you've gotta be a B.F.G to ride it...

  Wow, that's an absolute bargain for the Benotto (3). Will make a class bike.

  I'd love to get my mitts on it but the trouble and strife would go ape at another bike in the flat.
