1987 Peugeot Comete Sprint 56cm

- super light aluminium frame
- new Deda handlebar wrap (less than 50km ridden)
- new Vittoria Rubino 23c tyres (less than 50km ridden)
- new Clarks brake blocks (less than 50km ridden)
- Stronglight cranks, 52/36
- Shimano 105 gears
- Weinmann brakes & hoods
- Velotech wheels
- Cinelli Campione Del Mondo handlebars
- Turbo gel saddle

A lovely light bike to ride, all working as it should. I fitted the vintage Stronglight cranks as the original 52/42 was a bit much for me. Only selling as I have gone all modern and need space back in the shed...

£100, come and collect from near Tonbridge in Kent

Re: Peugeot Comete Sprint 1987 - £100 - Kent

I'm very interested if it's still for sale (?)
How does it ride - any noticeable issues?

Best,
Joni

It rides very nicely, its a very light frame. No issues that I am aware of.
Cheers
 
Re:

Bill - you can also contact me at joni@opendesk.cc if easier! I could probably drive down & pick up the bike one evening this week of suitable? (I'm in central London - where exactly are you?)

Best,
Joni
 
I had one new in 1987. Fabulous bike to ride, loved it. Right up till I pulled the seat tube out of the BB sprinting in big ring. Peugeot swapped the frame for me, and I promptly went out and did a sprint to check it and repeated the process. Had I seen this earlier, I'd have gone for it just for the memories, and stayed out of the big ring on the hills / sprints... :)

IIRC the tubes were hydraulically pressed into the lugs, no glue used, so there could be temperature differences in the interference fit. Both of my incidents were in the middle of the NY winter when it was below freezing.
