Found this on the Facebook marketplace.
When I bought this someone had it set up with lots of origin 8 single speed parts a deep v white wheelset, even a blue chain to match the blue panels.
I knew it was a Gran sport by seeing the photos, Ive always wanted one but haven't seen one here in Arizona for years. The paint has seen better days and I think the only original parts were the headset and seatpost everything else was gone.
I think i might just leave the paint as is, I have some parts for it but will need to find some brakes, brake levers, and that little adjuster for the hanger on the rear. Also, I'll need to find a wheelset for it, I want to do 700c if I can.
