Peugeot Super Competition = PX-10...right?
Just want to double check...have an opportunity to buy a Peugeot Super Competition...this is what Peugeot called later models of the PX-10, correct? Is there any other difference? The seller is calling it a "501" but the crappy pictures look like full Reynolds 531 decals...to me anyway...

Nice bike. My 1966 px-10 has chromed fork and chromed back stays. That is the only way I have seen px-10s

This could be a 1982 "PXN10" see RetroPeugeot's catalog archive. It's a bit grainy, but I think the top tube even has "Super Competition" marked in script near the seat tube. Nice bike...Hope it fits you!

It's a good one with what look like Simplex Super LJ and Spidel components. It looks to be all French except for the tubing, of course. A classic 80's Peugeot!
Hope you snag it!
Post up some pics when you get it home.

Its some incarnation of a px10 and it loooks like a suede saddle. Perhaps a gallet or ideale 2002.
All around great bike.

Newbie here. Would the PX 10 make a good fixie? I got my eye on a frame for 80 bucks. Here is the description:
"frame in good condition with bottom bracket. the frame has no damage but was repainted a few years ago. it was a project i started and never finished. i have a shimano 105 crank installed on an aftermarket bottom bracket made with french threads. seven speed shifters and shimano derailers."

$80?? My money says that first: It's not a PX-10.
Second: It's been stripped and repainted so... some modifications are already underway. Don't do anything that cannot be undone.
Third: This is a bit of a thread hijacking.

ohjonnybegoode - That sure looks like an eighties diagonal full Reynolds 531 label to me! Good luck snagging that one. A "Super" Peugeot indeed.
- And don't forget report back here when you get it with lots of pics!
