Description
Peugeot was one of those early bicycle manufacturers which grew big and succsessful during the 20th century. Their first bike was already built as early as 1882. But their reputation grew mainly due to their racing activities. Peugeot sponsored victorious racing squads and cyclists from 1903 until 1983.
In this time they managed to win the tour de france 10 times and countless championships, classics and one day races. Who has not seen the pictures of Tom Simpson and Eddy Merckx, winning the World Championships 1965 and 1967 on a Peugeot PX 10?
In the 80s, almost all bicycle manufactures were trying to modernise the design of the bike as well as production techniques. Our Peugeot PH10S Classic Racing Bike is a perfect example of these experiments. The tubes have been connected without the usual lugs which work like sleeve that is brazed onto the main tubes.
Instead, these tubes have been brazed internally, leaving the outside connections elegant and smooth.
As for the parts, they are more classic and include a splendid Simplex shifting.
The bike has been thoroughly checked by our mechanics and we can recommend it for your everyday ride.
