Here's my Peugeot in progress. The rear wheel is a placeholder as I wait for the single-speed coaster-brake hub to arrive next week. I have the 27" alloy rim in hand now. That's the original crankset with the spindle flipped around and a 3-pin 40t Stronglight ring. Front platform is from scrap wood and some wire shelving cut to size; front rack is a mini thing that I've had hanging in my basement for years. Those gold-anodized bars are also a basement relic on the original stem.




I fabricated a wooden chainguard some years back and will try and fit it once I have the rear wheel built. I'm also thinking of recovering that saddle with some scrap leather. Need to get to the thrift store and look for a leather jacket or large purse.
