I dug out an old 1977-79 Motobecane someone gave me. It's been sitting in the back corner of my basement for years. The bike is probably a European model since it has 700c wheels. The racks, fenders and lighting are all original.

I figure it needs a complete overhaul, new tires, tubes plus one new rim and all new cables. In the end I'd still have "tuyau pour le gaz naturel" bike that would ride like a tank.

Maybe I'll put it on Craigslist for $300 as a fixie special!
