I'd say it's a late 80's early 90's Peugeot road bike that someone was throwing away and it's been sitting in my basement for a few years. Besides the fact that it was made in france, is there anything i could do to save it or should I sell it?
It totally depends upon the quality of the bike, any pics?
i have pictures but the files are too big and won't load up.
no major rust. good chain, good tires, fresh grip tape. the one thing that bothers me though, and call me crazy, is that it's made in france.
Any idea of a model name? How about tubing type or components? Depending on what model and condition it could get you a few hundred to spend on MTB parts or a be nice rider. If it's a low model in the line up then yes, SS or fixie conversion.
Better models had P prefixes (i.e. PX10) and lesser were the U prefix (i.e. U08). Peugeots can be hard to ID exact models. If it's got Vitus or Reynolds tubing stickers, it's probably better kept as original. If it's only lightweight or carbon steel, convert to single speed or fixed gear and have fun.
