Motobecane Grand Touring randonneur bike 650b wheels 58cm frame custom refurbished

Check out this basement find: a Motobecane Grand Touring has a 58cm frame with a new 650b wheelset. Complete rebuild with updates and upgraded parts. Vintage champagne finish paint, with Avocet Touring suede saddle and modern perforated Brooks Microfibre bar tape. This bike has a proper 650b conversion with Weinmannn Zac-19 rims and Panaracer Pasela tires. The brakes were upgraded to new long reach Dia-Compe 610 center pulls (the original dual pivot design!) 

Its a smooth and sweet ride. A lightweight lugged steel, road and touring bike. Sure, its fine for some light gravel too. It's been well maintained and in exceptional shape.
