Description:
This Gitane Super Corsa is a stunning piece of French cycling history, built with the legendary Reynolds 531 tubing. The frame features a vibrant blue paint job with iconic yellow Gitane decals. It is uniquely equipped with a highly sought-after, reliable, and precise Shimano Dura-Ace EX groupset, creating a perfect blend of French frame-building heritage and top-tier Japanese engineering. Accented by a classic AP Atax Philippe stem, Philippe handlebars, and brand new Continental Giro tubular tires on Mavic rims, this machine is an absolute head-turner. Sized at a rare 52 cm, it is the perfect premium classic for smaller riders, delivering an authentic and extremely smooth vintage riding experience.
Condition:
Used. Completely refurbished and serviced at the RSB workshop in Munich. The frame and fork show no dents, cracks, or structural damage. The original blue paint and decals are in excellent condition, showing only minor signs of honest use that reflect its authentic history without compromising its stunning overall appearance. Mechanically, the bike is in flawless condition, featuring a meticulously dialed-in Shimano Dura-Ace EX drivetrain. Fully checked, perfectly tuned, and ready for the daily vintage ride.
Is the bicycle ready to ride & how much assembly is needed?
Yes, 100%. Every bike is completely overhauled, greased, and pre-adjusted in our Munich workshop before dispatch. To pack it securely, we only remove the wheels and pedals and turn the handlebars. Reassembly takes less than 15 minutes with standard Allen keys and a pedal wrench.
Can I view the bike in person or via live video call?
Absolutely. In-person viewings and test rides are available by appointment at our workshop in Munich. For international buyers, we regularly schedule 1-on-1 live video calls (WhatsApp / FaceTime) to walk you through every pantograph, chrome detail, and component in real time.
Are the components authentic and the frame checked for damage?
Yes. We strictly verify frame alignment, tubing sets, and date codes. We guarantee zero structural cracks, deep rust, or dents. Every groupset is inspected for authenticity and disclosed transparently with high-resolution photos.
How does worldwide shipping, insurance & customs work?
We ship fully insured via DHL / DHL International with a tracking number. For orders outside the EU (USA, UK, Asia, etc.), we provide all official export documentation. Standard transit takes approx. 3–5 days within Europe and 7–12 days overseas.
