There is an awful lot of controversy about what is and what is not a PX10.
There is no way to accurately ID a Peugeot's year of manufacturer by its serial number prior to 1979. BTW....those Mavic rims may have date codes on them. The bike itself is a '70-'73 but the exact year doesnt matter as they were all essentialy the same from '70-'73.
I can tell you the bike in question does NOT have a Nervex BB shell. Anyone care to guess as to how to ID a Nervex BB shell based on the pics provided?
