Hi everyone, I'm new here and I wish I'd found this forum before. As much as I use the internet, I never thought of it to learn about my old bike. (doh!)
The crank axle (correct terminology?) on my Motobecane Super Mirage that I bought new in '77 broke recently while pushing off from a stop sign. I fell maybe 20 miles before that, so I'm guessing the fall partially fractured the shaft, cuz I'm not that strong!
The catalog that came with the bike says it's a Tourney Luxe, alloy cotterless with alloy guard. That's about all I know about it. I've never needed anything but tires, brakes, etc. Do I stand any chance of finding a replacement?
