i thought the same thing, but then look at the fork. almost no rake at all.
feels much more responsive than a lot of older road bikes with much steeper head tubes (and high rake forks).

Thanks sr20det. I knew that would be a quick answer. Here is another question: does anyone make a 130 bcd chainring for a 5-armed spider crankarm that has those chainring cutouts, like in that Miche crankset? Most that I see, like Surly chainrings, and others, are just solid (lacking cutouts).

I really like the paint on that Peugot... and Peugots in general.
That crackhead bike is probably hot, just sayin.
And yeah, is that seat a theft deterrant for some theif to smack their balls on the top tube as they hurriedly rush away with your bike?
