What have I bought this time? I saw this frame on eBay a week ago.
It was at a low price and just up the road, and I'd had a few drinks, so I put a bid on. The bid was successful, and I won the frame for the grand sum of £19.95.
The seller delivered it to me, and gave a bit of background information. Apparently he bought it as a project from someone who said it was a Gitane. The seller hadn't done anything with it, and with his furlough ending had decided to let it go.
So, can anyone shed any light on what I've invested in? It'd be nice if it is a Gitane, but I'm happy with something that'll build into a nice bike.
There's no serial number or date stamped on either frame or forks, and no dates either. The bottom bracket was already fitted - the seller said he thought it was a standard British fit.
Thanks- as always - for all information.
