1984 Peugeot PX-10 DU

Got the frame NOS from a bike shop in France. Built up with period-esque components and tried to keep it all French. The frame is basically a rebranded Vitus 979 but I really love the custom Peugeot Team anodization (that nickel hue on the main triangle). Being one of the earlier aluminum frames, the ride is pretty damn flexy but it's comfortable and light (18.5 lbs with pedals).

Frame:
Peugeot PX-10 DU (the DU stands for Duralinox -- it's basically an aluminum Vitus 979)

Fork/Headset:
Bador / Stronglight headset

Crankset/Bottom Bracket:
Stronglight crank & bottom bracket

Pedals:
Lyotard w/ Ale cages & Christophe straps

Derailleurs/Shifters:
Mavic SSC derailleurs / Simplex Retrofriction shifters

Handlebars/Stem:
gold Mavic bar & stem / Brooks leather wrap

Saddle/Seatpost:
Selle Italia Flite TT saddle / Stronglight seatpost

Brakes:
Mavic 451 brakes & levers

Front Wheel/Hub/Tire:
Mavic hub / not sure of the rim / Tufo S3 Lite <215g tire

Rear Wheel/Hub/Tire:
Mavic hub / not sure of the rim / Tufo S3 Lite <215g tire

Regardless of ride quality, this is a really pretty bike. Though the stem is one croissant too far, imho.
