Motobecane C5

Found in a shed, refurbrished, only the front derailleur, brake lever hoods (NOS Weinmann) and the shift levers had to be replaced. Everything else shines like on the day the bike left the company shop. Very nice and stiff ride, only the low gears are a bit spongy while shifted. Maybe I have to look for a Sedi chain from the 80s. Frame and fork where originally sold as a set for 969 Franc includig tax.
