That's a fake LOOK. The fork crown is wrong, seat stay caps are wrong, the lugs are wrong, BB shell is wrong, the brake bridge is wrong. The real one on has one set of bottle holder boss. FAKE FAKE FAKE.
Don't think this guy is saying it belonged to Hinault. Are you? It's not original, wrong fork crowns, bottom bracket and Hinault used a Rolls saddle in that tour. Look did replicas called 'Equipe 753'.
Nice looking bike, but it is not what you say it is, or think it is. Lugs are different, fork crown is different (should come to a single point in the center w/ cutout). These frames only came w/ single bottle mount. I don't believe you'll ever see an indented chain stay on a 753 tubed frame. Orig. LOOKs had cinelli BB shell w/ plastic cable guides not brazed. wrong brake bridge. Logo text is wrong and too tall on headbadge. Etc. Etc. Nicely built bike, but it's an imposter.

@TheGaucho753 Got my 753 certificate in 1981 from TI Reynolds Birmingham, signed by "the Legend" TA Bill. This frame never saw any 753 tubing. Ves Mandaric
Groupset, frame and wheels (& tyres)? As ridden by Hinault in the 1986 Tour? Or is this just some form of outright cynicism? Who are you trying to sell this pastiche to? I think I actually feel offended a bit...
Nice bike, I've got an original with all original C-Record parts as used in the 1986 Tour de France and the Coors Classic by Bernard Hinault and Greg Lemond.
This frame was originally built by Hillman Cycles who were the authorized Look frame builder for Australia. As Hillman Cycles made bikes to order I customized it to my liking and budget at the time. Regarding the Look decals I recreated them and got them printed. Do a Google search for CycloRetro and follow the links to Decal Artwork
did you recreate this frame? i see it's not got the cinelli fork crown, bottom bracket shell or the campagnolo dropouts so i assume it's not an original. where did you manage to find the LOOK decals? nice colours tho!
