Classic & Vintage - ID this Peugeot?

This smells to me like a good 'un (and I don't usually like Peugeots). There's 0 info in the listing, but those look like clipless pedals to me, and something about the fork and the shifters says it's good.

Is that seat tube tapered?

That one's newer than my knowledge base. Sorry.

I tell you, a dedicated "Peugeot ID" thread.

looks like aero seat and downtube, sweet...

1983 Ph 12. Midrange lugless aero gaspipe.

I concur on it being a Peugeot PH12, but without further info the year is in question, It could be anywhere from 1982-1984.

It's an entry level model, but at the upper end of the scale. The frame is hi-tensile Carbolite 103, but the components are aluminum, including post, bars and stem, so it's fairly light at about 26.5 lbs for the 23" size. Should have Simplex SX610/SLA222 derailleurs. Atom/Maillard hubs with QR laced to Mavic Module E rims, Sakae Aero crankset and CLB Competition brakes. Original price around $250-$300 US, depending on the exact year.

Isn't this their "anniversary model?"

He killed the auction before the end anyway.

the red line reminds me a lot of the centanaire (?) model for their century model.

Eeuwfeest means 100 year party
1983 model PH12

I own one. It is the centennary model celebrating Peugeots 100th anniversary. Debuting in 1982 it can also be found it whats clearly a 1984 British catalog. i have 3 different catalogs with it listed....specs vary slightly (no surprise there)

hey it's France.. 100 year take it or leave it one or two year meditarinee thinking style ;)

Wow, it doesn't look like an 82 bike, does it? I'd have put it later. At that time, the only Peugeot I lusted after was the Fibre de Carbone, though I'm not sure now that I'd trust one.....

I'm in the process of restoring mine. It will be 100% French when its done. M-F'in axle cone cost $28.

Is this a Fibre di Carbone, or one of those things I failed to buy?

Like the white one you failed to buy.

Yeah, that Einstein guy should stop taking all the credit; the French have always known 'time' is a relative concept! That's why 'take it easy' is their motto; the 100-yrs war only lasted that long because they kept going home every couple of hours for coffee & croissants / wine & sausages, which in turn gave the English a welcome excuse for a teabreak every time, etc.. etc...
(General in despair : 'Now how the hell am I supposed to fight a war here if everybody keeps running off the whole bloody time!?')

How safe should I feel ridding it if i have to rely on something 100% French for me safety?

[JOKE] How many Frenchmen does it take to defend Paris?
