Classy bike, with a gorgeous shimmery two-tone red paint job, ornate lugs and gold details. Made in France with 2040 hi-tensile steel tubing in the late 70s or early 80s. The Super Mirage was designed as a recreational touring bike, and comes with the original, period correct, made in Japan rear rack, which you can easily attach panniers too. Would make a great, budget-friendly bike for getting around town or light touring, for a new rider or vintage enthusiast. 

It has very little mileage on it, and was kept in good shape by a previous Seattle owner who got it at Gregg's Greenlake Cycle (original dealer sticker is on the bike). 

It's a large bike, good for someone about 5'11" to 6'2".
Size/seat tube length (center of bottom bracket to center of top tube): 58cm
Reach (top tube length): 58cm
Standover height : 84cm (we recommend 1-2" of room for comfort while getting on/off the bike)

We haven't done much work on this bike yet but it is priced as a tuned up, functional bike. We haven't fully restored it yet, but if you book a test ride we will get it ready for you to try out. Major customizations and new parts would be extra.

2x6 speed with a pretty good range for hills, Suntour friction downtube shifters and derailleurs. Motobecane crankset with a large and medium chainring, and a chainguard to protect your legwear from grease. Bottle cage and original red bike bottle.
