FS: Gitane Tandem (24"/22") on the bay up Jun-07-05
Hi,
I just posted a Gitane Tandem (24" front/22" rear) on ebay. It is auction number 7160359667 and ends Jun-07-05 09:30:00 PDT. It is in the Philadelphia, PA area and might be just the bike for you. Description below - Michael http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=7160359 667 ---------------------- This is a Gitane tandem bike. This bicycle has a great deep flecked grape purple finish with some (but not many) scratches and has all of the original company decals. It is a French made touring tandem with cantalever front and rear brakes with a secondary, drum break built into the rear hub. It has a larger frame (24"/22") with a distitinctive curved rear seat tube that gives the stoker (rear rider) more space while keeping the overall length managable (90"). This tandem is ready to ride now and would clean up (dust from storage) with little effort. Take it out to train, on a long tour, or turn it into a really cool fixed gear two-seater for urban riding. I have two classic, upright-style handlebars you could use for $10 each in addition to the auction price if you want to convert from the current bars. The Gitane company is still making bikes and has a website at www.gitane.com. Tires- "Specialized Touring" 100x32C, 95 PSI Breaks - Mafac France, Simplex, Atom Drum Brake Gears - Suntour (6 cogs on freewheel and 3 chainrings up front) Wheels - Mavic "module 4", ALGI Pedals and Toe Clips- Stronglight, Paturaud special Christophe Captain (front) position - 24" (pedal to top of the frame's seat tube) Stoker (rear) position - 22" (pedal to top of the frame's seat tube) Jacques Anquetil and Greg Lemond raced on Gitanes. It is a classic brand in bicycling history. I think the Gitane company was realted to Renault company. I will deliver it free within 10 miles of Philadelphia, PA. I could also take it to a bike shop to have them ship it with buyer paying shipping costs. I take care to list as much as I know about each item. All sales are final. Please review the description and photos closely and email questions prior to bidding. |
