Interestingly, the Gitane they cited as the outstanding example was the Profil, a full aero frame (oval tubes, top-mounted shifters) with Campagnolo equipment that Hinault rode to a victory in a tour de France. Gitane later released a commercial version with mixed Shimano EX and AX equipment and some French parts (aero stem by Phillipe). Alan Bernstein -- even the buds are confused in New York-- is it spring?
