By then the process had been named DBS (Direct Brazing System). The video was made just about the time that Procycle's Peugeot license would have expired, circa 2000/2001. Consequently, the video features CCM bicycles, a brand that Procycle bought in 1983. Regardless, those are the actual manufacturing processes that would have been used to build many of the North American Peugeot.
You are a bike frame knowledge god!
