I have suffered from N+1 syndrome for too long and must reduce the herd. This recent project needs to go to make room for new projects. I am humbly offering for sale a 1974 Motobecane Grand Record.

Paint has a few chips, mostly under old clips, but has been touched up in 90% of the spots. And it's black, so it's not hard to match. 531 decals have been re-stuck and drive-side BB cup fixed in place by previous owner. Components are not entirely original but are appropriate and look wonderful.
Asking $600 US + shipping from zip 30332. Local deals strongly preferred and will meet within 100 miles of Atlanta, GA for no charge.
Thanks for looking
