?? Type of Peugeot ??
Yesterday was a great day.
A very nice man, was generous enough to bestow upon me a few lovely things.
It all started when I commented on his beautiful Pogliaghi...
I was riding my Benotto...so of course, the conversation made its way into the wonders of riding Italian steel.
Anyways a few beers later and were in the garage lookin at custom built surfboards, that he had built over the years. Turn out we know the same people, small world.
Anyways, this was sitting on a trainer in the garage covered in dust, when I asked about it all he said was:
"Oh, that, ****... You can take it... You want the trainer too?"
Hell yeah!
He also let me snag a Schwinn Prelude frameset with Columbus Tenax tubes that will be the perfect size for the lady-friend.
I admit, I didnt even try to figure out what type of Peugeot this was yet... But I know how much you all love doing this.
I couldnt find any decal / remnants of a brand of tubes
Cinelli bars/stem
Ofmega crankset
Rigada 700 alloy rims
Sachs-Huret Rival
The brakes are Royal Compe 2's... never seen these
If this thing was lugged and a bit larger, I'd be all over it. I dont know what I'll be doing with it at the moment...
Anyone got the lowdown, please, enlighten me.
*****THANK YA KINDLY*****

Rainbow stickers are from 84-88. Looks like it might be a lightly modified 85 PH501. Just a hunch.

I think your free bike just might make Miamijim cry. 
I believe it an 88 from the paint and components. The Aero brakes showed up about then. I think it is probably bone stock.

'85 seems about right. The serial number will either confirm or deny.
Cry? Heck no, I'll take all the free bikes I can get. Aero brakes are not OEM.

I don't want to start up a new thread but did Peugeot ever make department-store type of bikes? I ask because this one is described by the seller as having been bought at a department store and it does look pretty new, does anyone have any ideas on what type of bike this is? The little Canada flag on the down-tube is new to me....

Peugeot Sport, I believe? aka UO-6. Carbolite 103 frame. Although it looks newer than the other Sports I've seen pictures of.

Funny, I just sold a UO-6 today and I was impressed at how light it was....and it was at least 30 years old.

Late 80's: Procycle of Canada produces bikes for Cycles Peugeot for the U.S. market.
1990-ish: Peugeot of France withdraws from the U.S. market and sells Licensing rights for a period of 10 years to Procycle of Canada. Procycle now produces and distributes all Peugeot bicycles for the North American market.
1995-ish: Procycles enters into an agreement with a well known upscale department store for the sale Peugeot branded bicycles.
I DO NOT recall the name of the store.
NO, no and no. The bike in question is a mid 90' model with no association, other than name, to the previously made 'Sport' model of the late 70's early 80's.

There are so many " What kind of Peugeot is this?" threads.
Let me just say I dont mind this being the "official" one.
