Afternoon all,
I've just bought a cheap 'Luis Ocana' road bike (who actually makes these frames, and what from!?) - not in the best shape - for a low budget commuter project.
[Pictures Attached]
I had an unexplainable attraction to the bike, and got it for £80 (alright deal?).
I don't know much about the bike, other than the brief spec given by the seller;
- French built (70s)
- Mafac Racer Center Pull Brakes
- Huret Gearset
I'm planning on giving it a fairly standard tidy up - new chain, cables, pads, tubes, tyres and tape - to get it on the road, and then seeing how it rides before investing more heavily than that.
I can't find much info about 'Luis Ocana' bikes online, and wondered if anyone knew anything about them. What are the brakes and gearset like that are on it?

Good Evening Forum,
I'm looking for a Concorde (or other) Columbus frame for a super new build I have in mind. I really want one of the fluorescent colourways as on the attached, and these seem common to Concorde, but have seen them on Colnago too.
Size would like to be between 56cm and 60cm but would like to know about anything anyone out there has, to be considered!
Price range is obviously dependent on what is out there.
If anyone has anything, or has a good idea where to look, please let me know!
