Cool Blue Peugeot Nouveau

Please let me know if anyone is interested in purchase or trade. I believe it’s a ‘79.

Seat has been replaced. Missing dyno and lights. Reflector and grips came off an old Raleigh. Pedals are French but not original.

Just curious, what size wheels? My eyeball says larger than 20"/406, but smaller than 26". Would be nice if something standard like 24", but it's French...

Yes oddball size wheels for which tires are hard to find. Tire size is 22 x 1 3/8 (37-490). I was able find the gray Kendas on eBay I think. Not ideal in terms of the appearance and ride quality but they work. I have heard that Michelin may still make this size tire for EU market.

My eyeball did not betray, I still got it. Wow, that is a "b@stard size", as my father would call anything that is non-standard or obscure sizing. Sometimes increases the collector value; "Rare! Hard to find!" Or at least according to sellers.

Ha! I think I will start referring to this one as the blue bastard henceforth
