Hi all,
have been a lurker of this forum for a few years when linked from other bike forums, but only joined up a few days ago after getting into retro stuff a little more. Currently got a Saracen tufftrax elite which was given to me by my father which I would like to put a bit of money into, so this bike has to go!
Not sure exactly on the year, all I know is that it's a Peugeot Python 531 all terrain with tange forks. My initial plans for this was to strip it and restore it, but not matter how I look at it, it's way too big for me!
What has to be the coolest paintjob I've seen in ages, bright purple and pink - awesome.
Spec as follows:
58cm BB to top seat-tube
59cm centre to centre top-tube
Sakea seatpost
Exage 500lx front and rear mech
Exage 400lx chainset
3t stem, peugeot bars
Shimano brakes
Mavic m6 on hb-rm50 hubs
Wolber tyres
By looking at other photos of similar bikes, I believe this spec is original.
Rear spokes are very very loose and the wheel could do with a tune, front innertube has a slow puncture and it could do with new brake cables. I really do think this would clean up beautifully and make a really nice bike for someone.
I also have NOS vetta air saddle and NOS black ZOOM bars which I'd like to sell also.
Please excused my rushed photographs, the frame colour is much deeper in real life.
Looking for £100 collection from Leicester
