New to all this! Can anyone help me identify a bike?
Hi. I only know about my bike--lol It is a custom made fame della santa... 42cm. I am super tall! I found a vintage bike left by a tenant at one of my rental homes-- he didn't want it so I bought it home and it has been sitting. The bike is a Peugeot- record du monde- inoxydable- I have lots of info on it and when I look it up... there is just a ton of information. I did find a number punched into the steel underneath... #200100. It is white and -- well.... there is a lot written about these bikes and really too much for me to dig though. It is a big bike (unlike mine). Anyone have any idea what it is worth? Is it worth me taking the time to restore. It has: Mafa "racer", hub-normandy champion, Suntour shifter, Simplex model depose super competition simplex, crank-staightline competition france- Reynolds tubes renforces fourfreaux de foureaux et__rrieres, well lots to it- the saddle is obvisouly new. Avocet Touring II. Help? Thanks so much

Hello and welcome to Bike Forums.
We have a dedicated section for "what's it worth?" inquiries, so I'm moving this there (from Introductions).

Need pics. Obviously a Peugeot. I believe Inoxydable was a rust-resistant claim. They weren't rustproof, but would resist corrosion. Can't tell much more without photos.
