650B Peugeot...Never available in US?

Picked this up this weekend. The label on the frame says "PX45S". I can't find much info on these. At least not in English.

Can anyone tell me anything about it? It has a Carbolite 103 frame and 5 speed Simplex drivetrain. Appears completely original.

I doubt that was imported for retail. Probably brought in by someone who moved here. Looks low-end. Probably be a nice bike if it was fixed up

It screams low end, except for the Super Champion Rims. I guess it will be fine if I part it out then.

I have no desire to keep it and it would serve no purpose, unfortunately.
