Description
Established in 1923 Motobécane was one of the most famous French manufacturer of bicycles, mopeds, motorcycles, and other small vehicles. "Motobécane" is a compound of "moto", slang for motorcycle; "bécane" is slang for "bike."
They became more known to an international public by their sponsoring of professional teams and winning the Tour de France with their typical orange machines.
This strong yet elegant Motobecane Grand Jubilé dates back to the late 1970s and it is based on a half-mixte steel frame made of quality Vitus 172 double butted steel tubes. Thoroughly checked by our mechanics, the bike is fitted with quality French parts.
Either to take part in Eroica events, to hit the daily bike path or to cycle to the next café, this Motobecane is a reliable choice. Without renouncing a vintage style!
