1985 Peugeot PH501

Rebuilt this one from the cruiser version to a race looking restomod. Biggest tire I could fit safely. No fd braze on so I kept the seatube clean with 1x drivetrain. Cool Microshift levers allow for Shimano MTB cable pull; they're not the most ergonomic, but classic drop makes them more comfy. I had to mill down seatpost to 26.2 and stem to 25.0 to fit Peugeots weird inside diameters. Plush steel and 35mm tire ride. Wish it had another bottle cage mount, but still my new favorite.
