the ebay seller has told me this is one of four pursuit frames built by gitane for a velodrome near nantes in france. it has "4" painted underneath the bottom bracket. it is only speculation but it is a nice frame either way. I think it looks better with the corima, the gipiemme wheel has since been sold.
Frame:
campy drop outs front and rear
Fork/Headset:
stronglight needle bearing, only fits a 19mm tyre
Crankset/Bottom Bracket:
suntour superbe pro 165mm & 109mm bb
Drivetrain/Cog/Chainring/Chain:
suntour superbe pro 50
Saddle/Seatpost:
turbo gel padded
Front Wheel/Hub/Tire:
corima 650c
