Tim Gould Chas Roberts built Peugeot race MTB bike

[cce]

The market for old stuff has gone through the floor of late.... there's a new generation of riders all starting to go crazy for their idea of old stuff, some of which was pretty much brand new when Retrobike started....

I knew it! I'm obsolete!

Bugger.

I wonder if I can be re-anodized?

Currently at £560, £75 more than last time but judging by the updated FS thread you'll need to add another £400 or so to perhaps meet the reserve.

And worth it to my Mind. If only for the provenance.
