With a big bell, braced up ultra skinny rear stays for the only pedal back brake, mudguards, a 6v dynamo, apparently you where good to go in Paris.

Sometimes, you just see the very very mental of things.

A NOS La Gazelle. Probably one of the last if not the very last on planet Earth. Not superb class, but still, it is hand built, frame builder still earned it and bike still proudly showing World Champion bands. Honestly for the that money. What would you rather have today?

A total immaculate blast from the past that will ride superbly, or a new shit made kitchen utensil made in China?

Passionate about antique bicycles, I am selling my collection of antique bicycles, in particular French randonneuse duralumin caminargent, duravia, mecadural, gnome et rhone, aviac and colin.
This bike has been fully restored by myself. Some parts are new old stock NOS. All the parts have been completely dismantled, cleaned, restored, polished (in moderation to maintain a consistent patina!) and reassembled with grease by myself. Many, many hours of work!
