There was a time, actually a period of time, when it seemed to be common for a nutted rear and skewered front wheel(s). I am not sure why this was the case. Perhaps someone on the forum can offer a reason for the set-up.
Price point concessions, I would imagine Randy. And Trakhak is right, it was pretty common.
The odd thing is that is seems to be a slightly better bike than the usual suspects for a nutted rear wheels.
I like the yellow Peugeot you picked up.
