Peugeot Athena 653

So i had a Peugeot 531professional in Z team colours when I was a Junior and I always regretted selling it in the mid 90s and I’ve been looking for the same ever since. I still haven’t found the same frame but this eBay came up trumps with this and I don’t think it’s been ridden more than 10 miles...

very nice, I've always liked these! I think 10 miles is an overstatement...

I think we'd all like to see a full picture.

That's lovely.

Only thing out of place (other than pedals) is a record seat post instead of chorus..

Thanks all for your kind comments. I knew it was in good condition but wasn’t prepared for how little use it’s had in over 30years. The bar tape and the tubulars are the original ones and even the original paper sticker with the catalogue number is still on the chain stay.

I'm really enjoying that paint, somehow not over the top. And the mix of black and silver components all sits well. Thanks for sharing!
