I am a newbie and hope I am doing this right. I have two Gitanes (1972) to sell. The info. is included below. Thanks, Dave

My wife and I purchased two of these new in 1972 and had them upgraded at the time of purchase. We haven’t really ridden them for about 15 years, but they have been well kept and maintained, always indoors. Great bikes, but we just don’t seem to have enough time to enjoy them any longer. We would really like to see them have good homes. We live in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and can have them shipped. I could investigate the cost of that for you.
