Details
You could be the proud owner of this vintage Stella Arctic Cat road bicycle. Made in the 1970s (un-sure of the exact year) in France, this Lugged, Columbus tubed road bicycle was originally made as a promotional item for Arctic Cat snowmobiles with their logo on the head tube. This bicycle is longing to be on the road again, as Arctic Cat would say, " Miles from nowhere, is your everywhere "
BIKE CONDITION: The bicycle has some chips in the paint; most notably the upper left rear seat stay has some missing paint. The handlebar tape could use replacement too as it's coming apart in a few spots. The bicycle has had a few parts replaced over the years, please see specifications for details. Frame shows some signs of corrosion where paint is missing, also seatpost has some surface corrosion that could easily buff out.
This bicycle has not been checked over by a mechanic and we would recommend a full tune-up before riding.
This bike is being sold as is, please see photographs for details.
