Early 80s Vitus 979 Dural Racing Bike





I was truly blessed to have been able to own this bike.  From France... Bonded Aluminum frame, almost weightless and super flexy... interesting and fun ride.  I built it with whatever I had around, 7 speed setup with downtube shifters and it rode like a dream.  It was a touch too small for me and had a weird size seatpost that was hard to find and expensive to buy.  Riding this bike was pure joy.  Frame and fork were given to me by a friend.  I would love to find one of these in my size someday.
