How it came to me:
I really like the old french bikes with the new touch. I own a gitane I wanted to sell but this post may have saved her. Could somebody help me with some questions. My gitane champion du monde 75 has a french bottom bracket. I have a 6401 8 spd group. Can I get a bottom bracket that fits the frame and my shimano 600?
Plan b: Leave the stronglight 93 crank and mafac brakes an install the 600 shiftes and derailleurs. Then I have a new poblem, me new pedals doest fit the crank (frenh old thread).
Do I miss othr possibly problems? (I know I need to adapt th frame to 130) thank you for this fantastic thread
