Anybody remember this 



Well I finally got my arse in gear and finished it.

Good resto.

From a pig-ugly duckling to a sexy-looking swan, you my friend are going straight to BMX heaven for that transformation!!

You've obviously changed a few bits but still a great transformation... nice work.

Unfortunately there's not a lot of original bike left as bits of it had been changed before I got it like the wheels, some bits were jiggered like the forks, some bits are upgraded like the bars and I wanted to used bits I've had from BITD like the stem which I've had for 33 years.

Heres the original thread.

Great job there! What a transformation. I love a good Peugeot, and that's a beauty

Wow, I like it. I have a soft spot for French bikes, I had (broke) a couple of peugeot's bitd. Yours deserves a set of 3 piece cranks, it's too nice for shitty one-piece.

Cheers.

I've always liked Peugeots too.

I did consider it as there was a well used set of sugino CTs that went for a good price a while back and I reckon they'd have really suited it, but I like to build stuff with what I could afford BITD and unfortunately three piece cranks were well beyond my reach so it's the humble OPC for me on my OS bikes.

Awesome work 😉
