A very nice early 80's Motobecane Equipe Pro, which is a La Redoute team replica as ridden by Paul Sherwen.

Size is 58cm x 56.5cm (ct x cc)

It's a lovely classic with plenty of chrome (few spickles here and there but nothing too bad) and a beautiful petrol blue colour with just a few minor scratches none of which are note worthy. Graphics are generally very good although there are a few creases. Overall though it looks very good and for the age I'd say it is in extremely good condition.

The components are all European (apart from the Tange bb) and make for a very traditional feel to the bike it works great and is not too far off the original team spec. Frame and forks are Columbus tubing, very likely SL.

Included in the sale is a little La Redoute bag, cap, bottle and two brochures.

I'd like £375 posted for it or collection from Kent ME12 is welcome.
