way cool,a new age Pug. I wonder if it is still a "real" company from the old days or a sham name front like Moto and too many others. Still regardless,this is a fine ride. ENJOY.

in the recent times and up until 2004, Peugeot Cycles was owned by Cycleurope (which owns a few brands), but if I'm not mistaken, nowadays, Peugeot bikes are built by Cycleurope but sold in Peugeot dealerships. The brand is owned by Peugeot.
My Pug wears a Cycleurope tag on the portside. It is one of the early Altec's frame. Engraved CLM (which means TT in french).
Possibly a prototype made for race teams as Cycleurope and Peugeot aren't known for building TT bikes.

I bought the frame from the BigMat racing service. And built it following the hints a mechanic of BigMat on the 97 TdF gave me -and the fact that I live in Paris.
Overall cost of the build except the Zipp which I already had is around 200€.
