Peugeot
Good morning,
I have just joined Bike Forum so I am new to any protocol.
I have a Peugeot racing bike with frame number 1712933 so I know it is a 1973 model.
I would like to know more about this bike.
Any information would be appreciated.
Can you help?
Thank you.
Dave Donaldson

Welcome to the forum. You cannot post pictures withing the thread until you have 10 posts, but you have options. You can upload photos to a hosting site and then leave a link here or I believe you can upload photos into your profile section somehow and there are learned folks here that can see them and copy them here. At least I think that is possible.
Peugeots have a long history and many of us here love them. Even the lower-end ones are very fun to ride.
Look forward to seeing yours. Take pictures from the "drive" side and make sure to give an overall look along with some closer shots of the components, etc.

Thanks for the explanation @TugaDude. I am also new to the forum and also have a 1973 Peugeot. This is my first post so I’ll upload some pics as soon as I can. It’s currently a 5 speed since the plastic part of the original front derailleur broke, a common problem with the vintage Suntours. I’m waiting for a Campy replacement to arrive but am still riding. Although I’ve owned it for 30 years, it’s a little big for me so I’m planning to replace it soon.
