Go Forth Nobly

Working on this over the winter:









Motobecane Nobly

DuraAce crank
Wellgo pedals
8 spd Spinergy
Arabesque shifting (still have to make a shim to install F Der.)
Nitto bars
Milremo stem
leather grips
CODA levers
DiaComp calipers
Jaguar pads
Gold braid housing
32mm Grand Bois tires (should help keep the wheels from exploding)
Chinese post (Cuz I didn't have anything aluminum)
Some kind of seat
"Low trail"

I had to weld on a more modern der tab, and buy a BB threading tool to extend the (english!) threading into the shell. And file the fork tips a bit bigger. And bought a reamer set from Harbor Freight for the seat tube, since it came with a shim so the factory didn't have to ream the tube...
