Pictures? Never heard of a PHLE1062 specifically but I bet the Peugeot-philes here can enlighten us. Carbolite 103 is nothing special for tubing but that doesn't mean it's a bad bike. Where are the brake pads in relation to the slots on the calipers? Do they look like they can go down 4mm? A 700C is 4mm shorter in radius than a 27". Sometimes it works, sometimes you need long reach brakes.
