That's beautiful. And "real" Gitanes from France even more appealing. Although their range of models for the French market at this time is bewildering and it got worse during the Renault era.

I assume you mean this poster catalogue:

From the photos, it appears that these had Cinelli Unicanitor saddles and yes Mafac 2000 center pulls for the Olympic. Mavic Monthlery Extra Legere rims are the bomb... I think the nicest classic polished alloy rims ever made and actually not easy to find as they were soon superceded by the anodized models.
