Nice clean, simple build. I like that frame and those decals. Good work Teresa.

Nice build. What kind of track pedals are they?

Ryan I’m jealous. New Zealand? U bastard!! Everything I’ve ever seen of it is absolutely beautiful…And a lot of great surf too. Teresa, have you seen the dark blue bar tape Fizik makes?… would look great.

If there are heaps in NZ, Ryan, imagine the rest of the world! And I still love them! Check out that sweet old school flat crowned fork. Killer killer killer. Nice conversion

but lose the blue chain. It’s a cheesy touch on a classic bike. Also – two machined wheels and no brakes?

I hear you on the machined wheel bit…but I think it lends toward a bit more of a classic look on some bikes. I like both machined on the older frames. With you on the chain.

only needs a brake,tape and I’d add a period style rack for a townie vibe.lose the cheezy chain,it is very out of place on that frame.enjoy

I think it needs pedals. Probably just me though. Apart from that a nice looking bike (apart from the chain).

Agree with slo on the tape and brake. I’ve really come to dislike the bare bar, it looks unfinished. I finished tuning up my KHS Competiion 12 speed and actually enjoy the drop bars with brake hoods and too long but period correct brake wires. Not to say I haven’t done a bare bar in the past (Raleigh SGP), but that was more due to budget restraints. Wouldve done tape and at least bar mount brake. Bike looks awesome otherwise. Nice clean white frame and refreshing blue wheels. Love Peugeots. Cheers.
