Managed to rescue another Peugeot mtb, semi-upgraded the brakes, installed v-brakes but left the plastic levers (not verry efficient). Another oldie back on the road 😊

Managed to resurect the heavy metal MTB. Unfortunatelly frame was a bit small for me so went and sold it. Will have a new life as a pub-run bike, I see good times ahead for it :).

Thanks, will dig some more, when was bought it was missing just the crank set, buttom braket and front derreilleur, everything else seams original. The guy will use it in a "zombie mode" for now and will see what we can find until next season. Was surprised how well it rides, first full...

you should have bid, you would've made me happy 🤣🤣🤣, can't get rid of it .....
