Marrock's The Black Baron’s 1976 Motobécane Super Mirage.
A recent acquisition from craigslist free section, all she needed was air in the tires.
So far we’re enjoying each other’s company.
And no, the gas meter is not part of the bike.
Just picture this polished like it should be.
Hardly a scratch on her, I think the poor thing spent most of her life in a basement somewhere.
See how the camera loves her so?
I was going to be a restoration job on this one, but then I realized it didn’t really need it beyond removing some cobwebs & dust, a bit of polishing, and replacing the bar tape & a few rubber bits that didn’t age well.
More of a tune-up than a resto job.
