This caught my eye this morning, but is it a good bike? Will it have funny French-sized bars and stems? The stem on it looks odd and I'm contemplating making it a fast commuter with a threaded-threadless conversion and some comfy modern drop bars. I'd leave the drivetrain in tact maybe modernize the brakes, too.
Any info/opinions and persuasions are welcome!
Thanks!

Selling my 10-speed gitane road bike. Has been sitting in my garage taking space. Don't know much about it. Light double butted steel frame. Made in france. I believe its 58cm and should fit somone 5'11" and taller (6'1, 6'2) depending on how high you raise the seat post. Bike is pretty light, weighs about 22-23 lbs. Bike it complete and ridable but could use a tune up. Sugino and simplex components. Has front and rear eyelets for racks. If interested please email or call at xxx-xxx-xxxx.
