6 Cycling Gitanes Tandem Frames

Hi

I dont know much about vintage bicycles

I have 6 of these frames -happy to sell individually or as a lot

These are USED VINTAGE Cycles Gitanes Tandem Bike FRAMES ONLY

No wheels pedals etc - see pics

I dont know much but the serial number of one is in the pics so that may tell you something

I do know that 2 of them have the straight rear seat tube = contract-built by Follis (premium model).

The other 4 have the bent/wiggly rear seat tube and so are inhouse Gitane production

I have no idea of the value so ive gone for a reasonable amount - I was hoping got £125 each for the premium ones and £100 each for the others or £500 for the lot

Im in Manchester UK - If you live within 50 miles I can hand deliver for free or you can collect - I think due to size courier/parcwel will be approx £15 each anywhere else in the UK

The pics are of one of the premium ones - all of them are in similar condition but I can get pics if needed - none seem to be bent or have significant rust etc

I do not recall having ever seen such a bottom bracket set up. Nasty looking.

Bikes: Too many but still looking

Those are nice frame sets but I suggest you check shipping costs. If you can ship one of those anywhere within UK , I will eat my hat!
