Peugeot Super Competition

What you all think?
It looks nice except I don't want the tubular tires.

Looks nice, but if you're located in North America, shipping charges could kill you.

I'd be worried more about the Maillard hubs than the tubulars. This bike should be kept original, and these bikes came with tubulars.

Shipping kills that for me, but if it's your size and you have the cash, then it might be worthwhile.

As for keeping it original, it's an early/mid 80s PX10. There are plenty of Super Competitions around. Modify whatever you want.

I would say it's a nice bike worth about the asking before shipping. At this price range it just really isn't worth the extra shipping costs and hassle. These early 80's competition aren't super rare if you shop around a bit you can pick a similar one up locally in most US cities for well under $500.

Yup, not that rare, despite the impressive model name........but if it was the "Super Incroyable Ultima Grandiose Royale Competition" model, it will be as rare as hens teeth!
