Motobecane Champion Team 52 x 54.5
As much as I like riding this bike, it is actually too small for me and I don't ride it enough.
ca 1973 Motobecane Champion Team/Team Champion. Purchased complete in 2006 and ridden sparingly since then. Components are as received save the shorter stem and wheels. Wheels were built for me by Ray Florman, Jr using NOS Super Champion Arc en Ciel black rims. Rear derailleur is dated 1972, the cranks have no date. I don't recall the hub dating. I would call this a very nice rider with potential for more. Included in the sale is a NWT Team BiC XL jersey. Included but not pictured is the original 120mm stem (you will need to use the clamp bolt from the installed stem), Note that the shorter stem installed is a 22.2mm that has been sanded down. Campagnolo Super Record pedals and Christophe clips. No straps or mounting hardware for the clips. Tires are Veloflex Criterium very lightly used. I rode them once. Tires will need to be glued/taped before riding. . SOLD Delivery may be available to the Auburn bike event. Price would not change. Details would need to be worked out. Moto pics. Drill down in folder to see latest. https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...7eb37260d1.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...f4eb8c94d6.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...cfc17de1ae.jpg |

Bump.

WOW, H**Y CRAP!!! :eek:
Smokin deal, period. :twitchy: These do not come along at a price like this, unfortunate, strange times we're living in, it should not still be here. :wtf: |
So tempting. If only it were a centimeter shorter.

Longer cranks could help fix some of that, might be worth a try. Well worth the ask here and would probably be easy enough to move along if it really didn't work out. I would encourage you to take the leap and see if it can work, you know, just for fun. :innocent: |

It's the top tube length, not the seat tube that's getting long for me. Could I ride it? Sure, I have others that are long, but a 53 is where I like to be. Sure is a sweet bike, though.
Long time bike boom favorite of mine, still need to get the one I have going. :o |
