GITANE bicycle frame 3355g 54x54cm 123mm spacing vintage road

This classic steel frame from the French manufacturer Gitane provides a reliable structural foundation for retro bike builds. Weighing 3355g, this unit is engineered for stability and represents a classic era of European frame manufacturing. The geometry measures 54 cm for the seat tube (measured from the bottom bracket center to the top of the tube) and 54 cm for the top tube (measured center to center). This second-hand frame exhibits signs of typical use and storage, all of which are documented in the photographic portfolio. The detailed photos are part of the description to ensure complete transparency of its cosmetic condition.

Mechanical Standards & Alignment

Equipped with traditional French dimensions, this vintage chassis relies on a 35x100 "French" thread bottom bracket shell and a 25X100 threaded fork steerer tube. The rear dropout spacing is 123mm, making it highly compatible with period-correct multi-speed hubs. If you are completing a classic vintage build, you can pair this frame with a high-end period derailleur like the Shimano Dura-Ace Vintage Front Derailleur or explore other options such as the Cadre velo ancien 3045g if you require a slightly larger sizing configuration.
