Need to identify my $5.00 Garage sale Peugeot bike
Hello there,
I just bought a Peugeot bike on a garage sale for $5.00! So far this is what I got: 0428032 PH8CE 54 It has this markings/labels on it: Record Du Monde Any help will be appreciated. Thank you. Alex |
54 cm PH8, color code CE? (whatever that is). Not sure about the year. Below is the catalog page from 1981. Can you post pictures of yours?

Thank you. |
Its somewhere in the range of 79-83. Here is a site that may help you find some date codes on the components themselves:

Thanks!

It is obviously a P8, 54 CM is the frame size. I think it is likely from around '79. By '82/'83, I think it would have had cotterless cranks. I had a P8, but bigger, 57 CM, and it was a 1982. Sweet ride. Night very light, but a great ride.

Thanks for the input.

To whom it may concern or could help me out:
- I've just received my two new tires (27 x 1 1/4) and two tubes 700x23/25 32mm Will these tubes fit on these tires? I think that when my wife place the order there was a 'wrong' choice made...please advice. Thanks. |
I was looking into tubs earlier today for my SS and it has 700c on it and I was looking for 700x25c tube and on alot of the boxes they said 700x25-35/27"1 1/8" - 1 1/4". But they could be using different rubber compounds that can either stretch more or less so that still doesn't mean that the ones you have will work. I say just try it and if they don't they will blow out or feel loose go for it. Just be careful.
Also, congrats on the bike, looks like you got a really good deal. |
Excellent find for $5.

Thanks...I'll give it a try...

Don't get uptight about the tubes. If they are the right diameter they will stretch and work over a wide variety of tire widths.
