Motobecane Grand Touring
Was going to keep this because it rides very nicely and has tons of room for larger tires, but I just have too many projects going on and need to clear some things out and gather funds. The Vitus 888 frame is surprisingly light. And the Huret ratching shifters are smooth.
It's been partly dismantled at this point but easy enough to put back together. There's currently a silver araya/shimano wheelset on there but I still have the gold one, also a different saddle.
Think it'd be better to sell as is or part out?

Really like the bike but would say part out the gold wheel set is likely will likely sell for more than you could get for the whole bike.

how much do you think that wheelset would fetch?
