Question on Gitane mach 1800 bottom bracket

Postby aikendrum105 » Thu Jan 28, 2016 11:52 am

Hi all, I'm in the process of transferring some shimano 105 gear I had lying around (on an old 80's Pug PG10 I built up a while back) onto a 2009 Gitane Mach 1800 frame I picked up.

Been chasing up a few details to get moving

the thread type for the bottom bracket
stock fork length and offset

- my google-fu isn't helping on this one, does anyone happen to know or have access to the tech specs for that frame ?

Cheers,

Scott.

If it's threaded it'll be English (aka BSA) thread. Italian threads are only used by a (decreasing) handful of Italian manufacturers. There was once upon a time a French thread, but that disappeared many years ago.
I had a thought, but it got run over as it crossed my mind.
