The UO10 is an upgraded version of the UO8. Introduced in the mid/late seventies, the bike had alloy rims (upgraded from steel) and cotterless Stronglight cranks, usually badged Peugeot (and take a standard 22mm crank remover). A downside is the obnoxiously small seatpost-- the ones I have seen measure 24.4, making replacement not very easy. I've found the ride to be not as nice as earlier UO8s. As an upside, the simplex derailleurs on this model were not made of derlin plastic, and thus not prone to breakage.

There were at least two other models Peugeot labeled as "Course". One of them, the PFN10E, was one of the nicer entry level racers made at the time, with Vitus double butted tubing.
