Can anyone help me? I picked up some bikes forma lady today that wanted them removed form her place, so I got it free.
It is a Gitane Gypsy sport. I have done alot of looking online already but can't find anyting about it. It is in ridable condition as is but if it is worth it I will fix it up and use it myself. I am always looking for old bikes to fix up and am having a great time with it. Just wish I could find my own info so I didn't have to go begging for it. Any help would be great. Thanks guys and gals.

The Gypsy Sport was an entry model from the late 1970s. It replaced the Gran Sport, if I recall correctly. I believe that I have the original specs from the about 1978, if you are interested.

yes that would be great. you can pm it to me if you want or email it to me at sfbahrke@hotmail.com.
Thank you

Wow no Gitane fans here I see. I like the size of this bike, it looks to be a good candidate for a touring bike. She is alot bigger than my Prelude.

Stacey - I for one would be glad to help, except I don't know a heck of a lot about Gitane's. Pictures seem to have a magical effect upon some of us here. If you could post some, and possibly a couple specific questions that you have, I think some of those missing fans might come out of the woodwork.

Sounds like a plan. I will break out hte digi tomorrow and post some.
Thanks
Stacey

were here stacy , just not alot of us https://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/cyclesgitaneclub/ .we will have a full fledged website up soon . i am asking for anyone with catalogs that is interested in sharing pm me or email me ramsfans711@insightbb.com.i have five gitanes and just about added a murray serrotta last night to the collection but $$ was a little low this week. ah well wasnt my size anyway.

I'm a big fan of vintage Gitanes. I don't like my Peugeot PX10 so much any more since I built up my Tour de France. I joined that Gitane newsgroup long ago, but I'm not active because I can't deal with that newsgroup format. I've never been able to see any of the pictures that are supposed to be there somewhere. Set up a real website with a forum and I'll get active!

its coming the website that is.with a real forum and galleryive been talking to the guy who started that site and hes having a friend design a site . itll be a real website. i hate the format also everyone should be able to see the pics and not have to join. but for now its about the best site right now about gitanes . if you know of any other please share later....don

Can anyone tell me how to post a pic here?

As the master administrator of a pontifical office, you are probably used to directing your underlings to perform these menial tasks. Check out https://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=86968 for some step by steps.

I am also a Gitane fan/owner, I just don't know much about them, 'cept that mine's "rocket red".
