Peugeot Triathlon

What do you all think of this Peugeot triathlon? Do you think it is worth the price if I can talk him down a bit https://orlando.craigslist.org/bik/5501813393.html

PEUGEOT TRIATHLON ROAD

Reynolds 501 tubing, what's not to love? While less is better, Even at asking price of $180, it is fmv for a rider. Aethetics are horrible, but easily correctible.

That is a good price for a 501 frame with 105 components, even with the horrible aesthetics. If everything is good no issues I would say go for it with new tires and bar tape and no clip on bar extenders that bike would look 100% better and likely sell for $300-350 pretty easy in most markets.

Thanks everyone! I was definitely going to make my own adjustments to the style and I'm just going to tell them keep those silly aero bars. I am checking it out Saturday so I just hope no one snags it before then.

It is a pretty tall bike. Listed at 61cm. Are you over 6'? Or at least pretty close to 6'?

I am with Clifford, it looks like a good deal but only if it fits. There aren't any pics of the components but looking at the rims it would appear this saw little use or had a different set of wheels.
