1990 Peugeot Python - One Owner From New

[jon_918]

Picked this up today having always had a soft spot for early 90's Peugeots. £80 paid. Reynolds 531 frame, Tange forks, Mavic wheels. Shimano 500 LX groupset.

Owned by the same, now elderly gentleman from new. Seems to be all original apart from the saddle. Tyres also appear to be original. Missing a wheel reflector. Plans are a full strip down and sympathetic restoration. But it should clean up very well.

The horrid mud guards and rack will be donated to a local bike charity. Saddle will be replaced for something more in keeping.

Looks great, eye catching paint scheme, compared to the bland colours of today. I’d love a similar period Montana. But, they don’t come up often.

A well made frame: check out the joins - looks to be seamless ‘inexternal’ brazing. (Brass brazed from the inside). Great condish too. A steal.
