I purchased this bike last year (2014) from Pacific Coast Cycles in Oceanside California. This shop has a surprising number of older bikes in various conditions which are available for purchase. Lygie was a marque that I was not familiar with but this was a quality bike crying out to be loved so I took it home. This one was in original condition and mostly complete when I bought it but it was not rideable. It came with Campagnolo Record drive-train and hubs, 27 inch clinchers and Weinmann brakes and levers. The paint was also original but the down-tube decals had mostly flaked off. Still, with a little bit of love……..
