I've just picked up this Peugeot, mainly for the Shimano 600 Tricolor groupset that I was going to use on one of my other bikes.
From the sellers advert I'd tried, and failed, to ID the bike, mainly due to the colour and decals used, even Google left me clueless.
When I went to collect it I was pleasantly surprised to see Reynolds 753 decals on the frame & Fork, so a deal was done.
Now I have the bike at home I can see it has a "Refurbished by Bob Jackson Cycles, Leeds" sticker, which explains the colour & decals I guess. I've had a couple of frames refurbished by Bob Jackson's myself in the past.
The frame number looks to be Y1192604.
Would this make it a 1981 frame? (Y1...).
Browsing a few threads on here has me thinking it might be a Perthus/Perthus Pro, if it is indeed made from 753 tubing.
I've attached a few photos of parts of the frame, and it does have a chain "pip"/ holder on the seatstay.
Any help ID'ing the frame would be great, I fear it's probably too small for me, but then I bought it with the 600 groupset in mind...
