While we're on this Motobecane theme, a while back I emailed some of you about a yellow Motobecane frame that came my way. Lots has happened to it since, and I'm so glad to report my hopes of ending up with one super riding bike have been fulfilled !! Pics of the entire project below - and sorry, some of my choices of the components are definitely 'off topic'.

But as we're talking about 'headbadges' - many have looked at the decal on the front of this frame, and said 'I havent seen that one before'. The picture below has a flash washout in the middle of the decal - but indeed the decal IS deteriorated (especially in the center section) - so I'm really interested in finding someone who has a similar model frame, and maybe a nice looking digital picture of what it looks like !!

The decal:

Thanks for any thoughts !
