Need info on a Peugeot...

Should I be on my way to get this already? Never heard of this model, can someone tell me a little about it?

It's an '86 PH-10LE, I think. Its's a good riding bike, worth $100. It has aluminum wheels, HLE tubing, stainless spokes, alloy stem and seatpost. I don't think the shimano RD is original. Maybe someone converted it to SIS. If it's your size, jump on it.

If it fits you, that's a very low price for a nice bike.

'87 Shimano derailleurs are original and index compatible. If it doesnt have indexing levers all you'd are the levers to make it index.

Shp4man is correct. Definitely not Vitus tubing, but it's a decent midrange bike.

It's a good bike - I've got the same one, but an '83.

It's not a PX10, and it's not lugged, but it's a good bike.
