The Motobecane that thought it was a Rene Herse

Attached are a few images of my just completed restoration of a 1976 Motobecane Grand Record. Here is a breakdown of what was done... All original except:

Simplex seat post
Mafac Competition Gold Brake Set
Campagnolo Record High Flange Hubs

From Velo-Orange and Jitensha Studio:
Dia Comp front cable hanger
CLB Brake cable set
Velo Orange Front and Rear Racks
Aluminum Bell
Honjo Fenders
Grand Bois Tires

From Yellow Jersey:
Rigida 1622 Rims
Wheel Build with stainless butted spokes











Rides really nice! The Grand Bois tires and awsome... so smooth and quite!! Learned alot from this forum as I was putting it together!!!

I still have the original Normandy/champion 27" wheelset... recently rebuilt as well....
