Gitane Squadra Corse - Shimano 600 8 speed STI group - 54.5cm

I sold this as a frame to a friend of mine a year or two back and his had many miles of fun on it but now it's time to move it along.

It's a fantastic frame being built from Columbus SLX the ride is just superb the buyer of this will be well impressed I'm sure. Didn't notice any chips or scratches when I was dusting it over but I did notice some touching in (he took care of this).

It has a complete Shimano 600 Ultegra 8 speed STI groupset apart from a Suntour Cyclone front mech, which I love and begrudgingly left on as I didn't have another band on mech to replace it with. Anyway the group works a treat.

So thats it a Columbus SLX framed top of the range Gitane with Shimano 600 Ultegra groupset. Happy days!

I'd like £395 posted for it.

What no one wanna buy a quality retro racing bike!?

I have 2 yellow bottle cages (I think) that I can include, or 2 x black.

That's a bargain for someone after an understated quality bike.

I get measured for a bike soon if its within my measurements I may buy it if it's still going by then.
I think its about the right fit.

Ok well let me know.

I am rather myth'd as to why I still have this in all honesty....

Ive put a friend onto this..... He's not a forum member though, so if someone says 'pat the fireman' sent them, that's who it will be :0)
He wants something more modern, but this would do him far better IMHO....

Probably because it's a Gitane. Wouldn't be a problem for me but some people.....
