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...

The serial number on the BB will identify it, if it begins E its English ( it may also have BSC stamped on it as well ) , if the serial number begins F its French ( right hand thread both sides! ) they also did an Italian one supposed starting with an I but I've never seen one .

Just preparing my much loved 56cm Peugeot Fibre de Carbone PY10-FC ready for sale in the next couple of weeks . I've spent a fair bit to an already fine bike so it now had new benotto bar tape, lever hoods , new sealed bearing bottom bracket , new tubs , new chain etc. Just need to refit front...

Interesting story about this colour scheme. Peugeot adopted this colour scheme following legal wrangles when Carrera poached Stephen Roche from Peugeot whilst he was still on contract. As Carrera rode Battaglin , Peugeot insisted Stephen Roche wore Peugeot shorts and had his red white and blue...

I once had a 501sl red label in panasonic / weinmann team colours , I seriously undersold it , it was a beautiful frame but I often wondered if it was a special batch as it had GOD transfer.

Paul Sherwens bike has now turned up on. Ebay as below !

Wanted Simplex SLJ Seatpost size 25.0 for Vitus build like this photo. Not interested in any alternative thanks in advance.

ANC did use basically the same frame , there were the odd exception , Joey Mcloughlin mainly ( but not always ) used Cougars sprayed up as Peugeot but the rest used Peugeot.its well documented in loads of threads on here. Peugeot were the key sponsor.

Stronglight competition BB allowed you to adjust the cups to give a perfect chainline , like this one on ebay which is ITA thread . It's not mine by the way.

The Revell range were sold in the Freewheel catalogue in the 80's which was largely Madison cycles products. The rapide I recall around 84 / 85 had shimano 600 groupset.

The 82 Raleigh Racers catalogue confirms the Gran Sport was available in team colours as well as the standard caramel .

Just set up my favourite old hifi up after most of my stuff being in storage for a few years. It didn't cost me too much , I have a Sony CDP-M99 which was the top of the range Sony midi size CD player in the early 90's ( I've actually got two of these and a CDP -M97 as like bikes if I see one of...

I've also found photos of 1985 La Redoute riders Michel Vermotes frame which altough has the 1985 colour scheme seems to be a 1982 build that was repainted but has identical BB Cinelli Shell as mine.

I've been to my storage unit today as I realised I've never checked the frame number ( the thread subject bike ) . On the underside of the BB shell it reads 10685 which surely refers to build date 10th June 1985. It's interesting the '85 TDF started 28th June 1985 so maybe a hastily built frame...

Why make plans then pretend we aim to follow them , we all will spend money we don't have on bike stuff we don't need ...we can't help it .....!

Hi and happy new year, not being cruel but it's worth about £30 if you're lucky. Its been poorly stored and there isn't anything particularly desirable about it. Put a new chain on it, get it running and it's a beater but don't spend any money on it .
