Only hiccup was that the Campagnolo fixed cup was stuck and I couldn't get it out for nothing. I don't think it is coming out without heat and an impact wrench so it stay.
Lovely bike. The blue Gitanes with the yellow accent from this era is one of my favorites. Very nice component selection as well.

Why odd that this is all French threaded? Should it have a swiss BB? Is that why it wouldn't come out?
