Purchased as a frameset on eBay (France) in September 2007 for $225. Back on the road 11 November. An early and somewhat rare pure racing machine from French framebuilder Gilles Berthoud, better known for his randonneur machines. In outfitting the frame, the aim was to achieve a wholly French constructeur top-class racing machine in manufacture, materials and period correct components featuring the some of the lightest and best French components of the era. The built-up weight is just 18.6 lbs! The Ride I hate to nominate favourites of my collection, but hands down, this is the best riding and handling of the bunch! The ideal racing bike, very light, nimble but predictable handling, and ideal geometry... this is one of those perfect from the first ride machines. High build quality (I really like the simple, clean lines and the nicely filed and chromed lugs) and those superb late 70s early 80s French components make this a simply superb racing cycle and a delight to ride. Frame Material: Super Vitus 971 double butted tubing and forks Finish: candy red with chromed head lugs lined in white, chromed rear dropouts and fork Size: seat tube 59 cm (c to c), 60 cm (c to t), top tube 58 cm (c to c) Chainstay: 33.5 cm Wheelbase: 39" Fork offset: 1 1/4" Angles: 73 parallel Rear spacing: 126 mm Bottom bracket height: 11" Lugs: Prugnat S4 with cutouts Fork Crown: Bocama Dropouts: Vitus Braze-ons: rear derailleur cable stop on chain stay, twin cable guides under bottom bracket, 1 set of bottle bosses on down tube Components Rear derailleur: Huret Jubilee Mark II with drilled cage Front deralleur: Huret Jubliee Gear levers: Huret Jubilee clamp-mounted Chainset: Spidel (Stronglight) 105 bis 172.5 cm, drilled black-anodised 54/46t chainrings Bottom bracket: Spidel (Stronglight) no. 650, titanium 118 mm spindle, sealed bearing BB, French thread Headset: Stronglight A9 dural, French thread Stem: Philippe Atax Professionnel dural 110 cm Handlebars: Philippe Professionnel AG5 satin finish Duralinox 39 mm, Velox black cotton tape and Velox plugs Brakes: CLB Professionnel side-pull Brake levers: CLB drilled Seatpost: JPR Extra Legere fluted dural 26.4 mm Saddle: Ideale 90CR, titanium undercarriage Pedals: Maillard 700 alloy Toeclips and straps: Christophe Competition alloy clips and straps Rims: Super Champion Competition 36-hole Performance silver anodised, 700 x 20 mm, 275 g. each Hubs: Pelissier 2000 36-hole high-flange with Pelissier skewers Freewheel: Maillard dural 13-19 t, six-speed Tyres: Tufo Jet Pro sew-ups Chain: Sachs Accessories: Ad-Hoc "Racer" pump, AFA umbrella clip, T/A alloy bottle cage and T/A bottle.

serial no. 703003 Bought on eBay in September 2009. Back on the road 25 November. The Restoration Purchased from its second owner who bought it in 1979 and used it through the mid 1980s and stored indoors since, this was in remarkable and largely original condition. Save for the usual paint chips and a rusty driveside crank, it was in excellent condition and required only a thorough cleaning and polishing and some paint touch-ups. As so often with Peugeots, the chrome fork ends were in superb, almost perfect condition as were the decals. During the restoration, the later added Ideale 90 saddle was replaced by a period correct Ideale 59 with dural undercarriage. The wheelset came with Rigida Chrolux 27 x 1 1/4" chromed steel clincher rims and these were replaced with the catalogue spec'd 700 sew-ups using the original Prior hubs and Simplex skewers with 15 g straight-gauge galvinised spokes and period correct 1950s Mavic sew-up dural rims. The Ride To quote my regular cycle shop mechanic who overhauled and built up this (and all my machines): "Test ride revealed a very lively ride with a light feathery touch. Responsive feedback washed all over the rider with a immediancy and smoothness which seems to be missing from modern bikes" He was guilty of understatement; in the course of my first ride I found this to be an astonishingly light and lively machine, even for a French racing bike and even for a PX-10. Simply exhilarating ride and all the more so since she's by no means my lightest bike in weight. She flies! Frame Material: Reynolds 531 butted tubing and forks Colour: Peugeot-BP team colours: “transparent” blue with yellow lugs and white seat stay caps, chrome front fork socks and rear triangle ends.

serial no. 703003 Bought on eBay in September 2009. Back on the road 25 November. The Restoration Purchased from its second owner who bought it in 1979 and used it through the mid 1980s and stored indoors since, this was in remarkable and largely original condition. Save for the usual paint chips and a rusty driveside crank, it was in excellent condition and required only a thorough cleaning and polishing and some paint touch-ups. As so often with Peugeots, the chrome fork ends were in superb, almost perfect condition as were the decals. During the restoration, the later added Ideale 90 saddle was replaced by a period correct Ideale 59 with dural undercarriage. The wheelset came with Rigida Chrolux 27 x 1 1/4" chromed steel clincher rims and these were replaced with the catalogue spec'd 700 sew-ups using the original Prior hubs and Simplex skewers with 15 g straight-gauge galvinised spokes and period correct 1950s Mavic sew-up dural rims. The Ride To quote my regular cycle shop mechanic who overhauled and built up this (and all my machines): "Test ride revealed a very lively ride with a light feathery touch. Responsive feedback washed all over the rider with a immediancy and smoothness which seems to be missing from modern bikes" He was guilty of understatement; in the course of my first ride I found this to be an astonishingly light and lively machine, even for a French racing bike and even for a PX-10. Simply exhilarating ride and all the more so since she's by no means my lightest bike in weight. She flies!
