For MTB and Marseille's rides (this city is too much chaotic to enjoy riding with my Raleigh Sojourn), I found this second hand Cannondale from golden age and quite used but with nice parts (picture 5), I swapped the FattySL fork in poor condition for a Surly ready for racks. For the oldschool look, the Brooks saddle + Panaracer Smoke & Dart tires are perfect. And I complete its "poodle & rats crusher" style with a DIY flag, flat pedals and headbones lights!
Last detail, the "Magic Tree" car deodorant found on the street, because "my other bike is a bike".
