Peugeot UO8

I've had this for about a year now, but finally got my act together to post some pics. I used a lot of info here to figure out its year: 1972

That is one clean-looking UO-8! (The finish on mine is getting very rough, by comparison.) Because of the stem shifters, I think it is more likely a 1973 or 1974 model than a 1972.

Thanks, the pump is a Ventolux-made in France. I was told it was original to the bike.

Yes, it is. Please flip it around so that the red/blue is by the headtube.

It doesn't fit the frame pegs that way. One of the links on your web page to retropeugeot shows a 74 catalog with a UO8, pump is shown with stripes down by crank.
