The rear rim and disc aren't original.
Very interesting. I rode the bike a mile or two when I refurbed it for him 2yrs ago. The headtube angle resembles my Cannondale Criterium. The wheels are Weinmann concaves. Here is the kicker: my friend bought an apt house and this bike was in the basement for who knows how long. The rear wheel had a severe whoopdie that rendered it unrideable. He doesnt know anything about bikes and is rideable only by my encouraging him to ride with me (he wont). He is wanting to clear it out of the garage so I needed to hear from the members if it really is a PX-10....Peugeot being on the complicated side.

Thanx for the discussion, I'm learning!
