Have had this Peugeot PY 10 frame and forks a while now and have now almost got all the bits to go on it.
I will have the frame refinished properly before the build so here is a taster of stage 1.
Now I'm a Peugeot fan, 1st proper bike I owned and crashed was a Pug.
Lusted after a PY10 for donkeys.....
Do not confuse this with a PX 10!
For those not familiar the PY 10 was top of the Peugeot range, built in the special salon/factory that the team bikes were produced...so theres the snob value out of the way....
Think Thevenet / Kuiper / Laurent / Millar .....
The frames were in Reynolds 531 SL. And the geometry could be custom tweaked blah blah!!
So anyway cos I'm a short arse it's rare to find a diddy PY 10...so when this popped up..snapped it up.
I think PY 10's will become well fancied in the next couple of years....not that really has any bearing as to why I like Peugeot, indeed when you look at these against alot of the usual Pug dross youre reminded they did make a couple of good machines.
Any way I'll keep all updated as the build progresses.... might get a few Peugeot converts too.
