Team Miyata, Gitane Team Pro, Peugeot PY10FC
I'm looking for help from our C&V community to find a copy of a Bicycling Magazine comparison test of a Gitane Team Pro, Team Miyata, and Peugeot PY-10FC. I believe the article came out around 1984, 85, and 86 time frame?
I have spent a bunch of time searching through eBay, which hasn’t turned up anything. I have tried a wide variety of search words. Plus, my searches wind up forcing me to look through motorcycle magazines even though motorcycle isn’t in my search terms, and the bicycling magazines that do show up seem to be the same dozen or so.
Thanks in advance for the help!

I have that copy in the basement. I will try to locate it later tonight. I should be able to at least nail down the exact month.

Nov./Dec. 1984. "The Dream Machines". Cannondale SR-900, Lotus Competition, Team Miyata, and Gitane Team Pro. I scanned the pages, in an attempt to post them, but I cannot find the "add album" tab on my user control panel to upload. Too much time wasted trying to find the magic pathway to post them. I'm done.
