Mine was stock frame from Peugeot France as was most of the team apart from Malc and Joey

Any idea who built theirs? I'd heard tales of some ANC team frames being Brian Rourke ones in 753 tubing painted up as Peugeots but don't know if there's any truth in that.

That's basically what I'd heard - but it could just be an ugly rumour................

I think Joey had his built by Cougar

Probably true. In 86 or 87 I saw a row of about 5 of them in the backroom of Rourkie's shop. The one I got to handle had his headbadge logo discreetly positioned behind the seat tube, just under the seatstays.

I have seen the frame, forks and a box full of impressive parts and wheels. It is going to be a very nice build!

Stock team frames from France had Simplex dropouts
