I appreciate them even though I do not own one. Can I still join?

Don't have this one anymore. I miss it though, this bike started my vintage steel affliction.
Still have this one.

Ditch the stem-mounted shifters for bar-end shifters and assuming that you've put alloy rims on it, you've got yourself one nice light tourer type bicycle.frog wrote:Still have this one.

Does this get me membership? It's a 1976 Peugeot PR and is currently somewhere between Europe and Oz.

I need a speedo sensor for it, if anyone knows where I might find one.
I like it very much, I hankered after one when I was younger but they were out of my price range. I got this for $20!

If I ever find that time this will once again be a lovely little bike.

Here's my latest project - old DF-5 mixte. Steel everything and rusty as all hell. Going to sand it down a bit to see how far the corrosion goes. If it's OK, it's off to be sandblasted.

Thanks for the link, that's a very interesting site, especially the page about the bike boom, i can't believe that 15 million bikes were sold in one year in the 70s!CommuRider wrote:Thought I'd share with my fellow pugs

Good site full of old catalogues
Thanks to that site, i've now decided to to a proper job on my Iseran (and then sell/give it away as it's too small for me) and am thinking about using appropriate components, but i can't find anywhere on that site what sort of derailleurs it had, only 'shimano z501 stem shifters'.

I just picked up a Peugeot road bike ($20) and was wondering if anyone has more complete info on the bike than I have been able to muster. It came with a Suntour Superbe group set (yippeee) in pretty good condition 10 speed, with Shimano 5 speed freewheel. It has a Sugino Titanium axle / BB, Fiamme tubular rims (for the bin I think) and the hubs are called (I think) Sunshine pro-am (might keep these If folks think this is worthwhile). The frame has a few patches of surface rust but seems to be in good condition and seems pretty light. It has Champion stamped on the bottom of the BB. Can anyone provide info on the age and frame material. Is it a bike that I should put a lot of effort into restoring? I may go down the powdercoating / spray paining route and I've found some decals from Cyclomono which are pretty close. Any idea where I could find some Superbe decals??

Also I'm going to take out the bottom bracket, can I assume that its regular thread on LHS and reverse thread on RHS as with most bikes, or is the French thing a bit different?
Cheers
