Melanie B’s 1978 Peugeot Sport

Posted

Hello, my name is Melanie

I thought you might like my 1978 Peugeot Sport. I found this bike after searching for a project bike for a mural. The guy offered me an old Iverson with missing parts and he had that Peugeot. I bought it as it was complete. There was very little to do to make that bike rideable again. Everything except the rear tire is original. The guy that sold it to me bought it brand new in 1978 and he said he had put quite a bit of mileage on it. It was stored outside along with the Iverson for a while. There’s some rust spots on the wheels and on the frame. The bike is in a fairly good condition overall. The leather seat is also original. I thought it would be quite arsh on my behind but its surprisingly comfortable. This bike ride really well and his geometry fits my 5’11” tall very well.

Thanks!!! Melanie Alberta, Canada

Thanks Melanie

    That’s a great old Peugeot, Melanie! A little rust here and there never hurt anyone!
    If you ask me, it looks like that frame size might be somewhat small for someone your height, but if it isn’t uncomfortable to ride, that’s what counts!
