Yes it is! It fits the retro-mod Team Renault theme that this bike accidentally took on.

Nice job on the rehab. This bike is very nicely fixed up.
Thank you. I was planning for this to be a keeper. It seems we're on the same boat for sizing -- a 57cm would probably be ideal but I've only ever found 58cm and this one here. Gitane sizing seems to vary so hopefully one of these pops up for you at some point!
