    Mimi, I believe the Gunnar Sports have room for fenders. I currently have a Roadie... will probably be moving to a Sport. Here's the Gunnar Roadie... the Sport is just a teeny bit smaller - and this is the color I'm considering...it's the first picture on this page.

    I like that green. Trek420 has a Motobecane with a similar shade of green and it's very pretty.

    Awww, Flosshilde the Waterford wants you to be SURE to post pics of your Gunnar so she can say "Hi" to her cousin...

    It's nothing that fancy, I found (yes found, and yes my shop ran it through police records, not hot, just abandoned) a 70's-80's French Motobecane Mixte and for the color alone, like metalic green tea I had to keep it.

    My LBS is fixing it up. I keep asking Chris "what do you think of..." "it's been decided" so seems they know what I want.

    Yeah, I love the green! Knot, your Waterford is georgeous! How did you decide on a color for yours? I have the Waterford colors to choose from too!
    Trek, some things you just *know*! I can't wait to see a picture of yours as well! I love vintage bikes.

    The paint book is on it's way from Gunnar... should be here today or tomorrow.
