[QUOTE="bobberboy, post: 386775, member: 1417"] A Gitane from the 70's. It's all steel and old school as all get-out. My regular road bike is a Peugeot that I bought new in 1882. It is much lighter with most of the components being alloy on a steel frame. The Gitane will become a one-speed commuter bike to take to the hardware store, pub etc. Since I retired I hardly use my Jeep anymore. Usually less than 20 miles/week. Tank of gas lasts for weeks. I figure that rather than pay lots of $ to take weight off the bike I'd just use it more and take the weight off me instead! [/QUOTE]
