  Early 1980's Motobecane Grand Record
I bought a Motobecane Grand Record in 1983 from a bike shop in Bermuda and I am trying to learn something about the bike. The chain stay says made in France and the bike is equipped with what appears to be Campagnolo Triomphe Gruppo. The Frame is not lugged however there is a recessed area under the Top Tube for the Rear Brake Cable. The rear dropouts are Campagnolo and the Seat tube and Fork have Columbus stickers. I know that Motobecane was sold in the early 80's however I am trying to determine if this bike was actually made in France or was it one of the first outsourced frames. The bike has always been a comfortable ride and I am thinking about trying to bring it into the modern age if it can be done. Any information would be appreciated..... |
