PEUGEOT PY/PX10

Here is a machine that is very rare in New Zealand.

This is either a Peugeot PX10LE or a PY10

from the late seventies.

These seem to be rare on these shores, I gather,

because there didn't appear to (obviously) be any one

importing Peugeot's into NZ until the very late seventies.

...

Notice the French specific Reynolds decal...nice

 Simple, but I think beautifully understated fork crown.

 I had been after this frame for a few years, so was 

really pleased when it's owner phoned me a while back

to say he would sell it to me.

It's really is on the out side of my size range,

but I will make it work ( I hope).

 One of the reasons, I suspect it is a PX10LE or a PY10

is the relatively short wheel base.

Although I could well stand to be corrected.
