+1. What is the draw? It seems the frame has very slack frame angles - that's enough to make me interested. Is this true? Is this part of what makes it special? Tell me why I need one!
The Peugeot Express is old and does, already, have some collector value. As time passes, more and more special old mountain bicycles will fall into this category and collectors will actively begin to seek them out.

OK, now I need one of those straps. It's funny I've been staring at the frame for a couple of days now and it didn't even click that the seat tube had 3 mounting points not 2 or 4.

I was lucky enough to stumble upon a nearly mint original Peugeot Canyon Express.
I did not keep the bicycle, simply because I had too many at the time. Swapped it for a lovely old Holdsworth Record from the early seventies...
