MBK (later Motobecane) road bike with an unusual frameset - internal fillet brazing & possibly Colombus* tubing - for £50: https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/vintage-race-bike-mbk-super-mirage-/1493878669

* The best MBK frames of this time would be triple-butted Nivacrom (top quality) - but this one doesn't seem to have any classic red dove decals.

I had a Super Mirage in the 90s, it had Columbus Cromor, it was a good ride, fast and responsive.

It does say "offers", so sadly the quid's evidently only bait. Still worth a sniff around though - looks nice

'Two-tone' is a bit generous for a dodgy DIY spray-can paintjob !

Thanks for posting, though - I'd always wondered what Schwalbe Marathons would look like on Alesa rims. Not bad, it turns out (even if IMO they don't work quite as well with those mudguards).
