Vintage French Steel

Looky what I found (yard sale) and built! It's a Motobecane Nobly and it's pre-70's. I wanted to keep as much of the original stuff as possible, but I had to replace some of the stuff that was in bad shape. I love this bike!

YES! But I geared it very timid - 39/17. I really wanted to keep it as original as possible. My brother sent me a harrassing e-mail to throw a Brooks Saddle on it.
