Anyone got one of these they'd be willing to sell? , it's the fluted one that looks like the super record post. Thanks

Looks like lots of thick paint under the bottom bracket shell and possibly some filler? I wouldn't be surprised If you took it back to bare metal with a dremel you'll find the number. Those vertical dropouts were from about 1989 onwards

The frame number will be on the bottom. Bracket. I'm guessing it's a respray? , the vertical dropouts make it sound iffy for a 753 , I'm certain the 753 had the simplex horizontal dropouts but you need to upload a photo for a proper considered opinion, it's so easy to stick a 753 badge. What...

I think these are very tired and well used examples, all I can say is the gent who bought my PY10-FC was delighted with the bike and to pay asking price, the bike was basically brand new condition and he also later contacted me to say it won an award at the recent Tom Simpson memorial, so I...

Very few Peugeot PY10-FC Fibre de Carbon were actually sold in the UK. They were around £1200 in the early 80's at a time when a special order ( but not SBDU ) Raleigh team replica was retailing at £400. I have somewhere a Peugeot special pull out supplement from 'Cycling' with an interview...

I totally concur with Bikeworkshop, the threat from the far East killed the quality after the 80's although I cant speak of or have any interest in the modern stuff. The likes of Peugeot and Raleigh couldn't compete with the cheap labour costs and so the cost cutting, downgrading and sponsorship...

Peugeot absolutely were famed for lightweight frames and were innovators if anything , one of the first companies to produce a carbon fibre frame , I refer to the early 80's Fibre de Carbon ( based on the Vitus 979 but Peugeot made their own frame tubes stiffer and slightly larger than the...

About to purchase a pair of Challenge Strada Pro clincher tyres , which I've used on a couple of builds and found to be great tyres. Prices on these have rocketed ( previously bought from winstanleys )and now seem to be about £58 each but available on Ali Express for under £24 . Anyone bought...

I had an Ascent EX around 1991 which I fondly remember, if only for the story of how it was stolen by a 'buyer' from Loot ! . I was considering the Apex and Axis at the time but the Ascent EX actually looked better then the others, it was black with pink paint splatter which sounds horrible...

Nice bike, what part of the country are you ? / are you willing to post?

Hi my number is 07485 049800 if you want to see the Peugeot. It would have to be evening or weekend as I work during the week. Please only ring / text if you are seriously interested. Thanks Andrew

It's now finished , couldn't resist cheeky addition of RM's name on the top tube . I never did find the correct team spec Simplex seat post but the stronglight aero one does the job nicely . You may notice the top tube cable ties which were also common on the team bikes as the glued on ones had...

There were two versions from memory , one higher spec which I think was based on the PGN10 and the other lower spec. Peugeot around this time also had three types of seat clamp , the standard binder bolt , the rear seat tube backward facing allen bolt which was used widely on the higher spec...
