Continuing with another Moto, this is Shawn W’s stunning Motobecane Grand Touring split-tube mixte.
Year: 1980 – ish
Make: Motobecane
Model: Grand TouringA little bit about it: Rare split-tube Mixte, bought with no wheels, saddle or bars. Installed (and polished) NOS Suntour bar-ends, (entire drivetrain is Suntour) Polished every piece of metal on it for far too many hours. Handmade wooden fenders. At least 3 lbs lighter than any other Mixte I’ve restored. I did at least 20 this year, even more last year. They’re popular in Portland!
Thanks Shawn
