1972 Peugeot PR-10 (59cm)

Picked this up on fleabay recently. Seller failed to disclose the spread & modified RDO and the cracked seat lug (lots of pics below). I was only able to get a partial refund, and I'm left with shame for not trusting my gut.

Not sure how I feel about the damage -- feedback welcome -- all things considered. If you have enough posts to send PMs, talk to me.

FRAME NO LONGER FOR SALE DUE TO ADDITIONAL DAMAGE FOUND.

  • Measures: CTT on seat tube is right in between 59-60cm, CTC on top tube ~58cm. S/N on the BB plate is 2224360 which suggests 1972.
  • The Good: Reynolds 531 main triangle, no significant dents I can see, inner tubes appear clean, steer tube threads are clean, fork is corked.
  • The Bad: Typical lever clamp gouges on DT, some surface rust, several chips, hairline crack in the seat lug (appears limited to lug only), rear DO slot is bent, hanger modified for non-Simplex RD.
