real clean start. love peugeot’s. glad to see the brakes. fork is brilliant. add some clips, bar tape, and minimize the cables.

one brake, smaller brake lever, new saddle, and clips will make it a lot more cleaner, it’s got potential I guess.

Looks like a lot of works gone into a bike with bad geometry. Find a new bike and swap over those parts to a more deserving frame.

at that point i´m with you blendo – geometry isnt the most radical. thats because its origin is from a tourer with full mudguard action.
nevertheless i do like its look and apart from that it gives a really smooth and save ride with is drawn out geometry.
maybe i´m going to swap over those parts to a more aggressive frame sometimes..

I don’t mind the way it looks actually, but I think a nice frame with tight clearance would be a better ride. Take this one, put the fenders back on, add some cheap fixed wheels and you have a great winter/rainy day beater.

love the chrome wheels(oohh shiny!)but this bike needs fenders and 27s to fill in. But it prob rides good as is so enjoy.

akk…all I saw when I first clicked on this was BRAKE HOUSING (grey camouflages a little better). Also hate the mirror rims. They’re too gaudy…just one level above mirror gold (*shudder*). You did save the orig paint, so that’s a big plus.
