Excellent condition 1972 Motobecane Grand Record. This is a classic sports touring frame, comparable to the Peugeot PX10, Gitane Tour de France, Schwinn Paramount, and other top of the line bikes from this era. Honestly, I think the build quality and component choice on this bike is better than the Peugeot PX10 and Gitane models. A fantastic ride, and ready to go. These yellow and black 1972 models are rare and even rarer in this condition. Frame: Reynolds 531, 3 main tubes butted. Seat tube 60cm (just slightly less than 24 inches), measured center to top. Top tube a bit more than 58cm (almost 23 inches exactly). Derailleur: Campagnolo Nuovo Record, front & rear (original). Brakes: Universal 66 (original). Brake levers: Dia Campe aero (upgrade). Wheels: Araya 27in alloy rims, with Suntour Vx hubs (upgrade). Tires: Panaracer Pasela, 1 1/8in, folding bead (plenty of tread left). Crank: Stronglight 49D (original, in excellent condition). Pedals: Atom 700 (original). Seat post: Campagnolo Record (upgrade). He paint is very good throughout, with only very minor scratches (see pictures). The largest scratched areas are on the rear seat stays, where a previous owner attached a rack–this is visible in the 5th picture. Much of the paint on the bike has the “craquelure” pattern of tiny, block shaped cracks, that is typical of these bikes. Not a problem–the Mona Lisa has it too! This bike is ready to ride.
