Vintage 1980s Peugeot 12-Speed Road Bike — Made in France
There was a stretch in the 1980s when a Peugeot was the road bike a serious rider aspired to, and the badge on the head tube meant something. This is one of those bikes: a 12-speed French road machine in black, built from steel in an era when frames were brazed by people rather than bonded by machines.
Show full description and specs
Steel road bikes from this period ride in a way that is genuinely difficult to buy new today at any sensible price. The frame flexes just enough to take the sting out of rough pavement, holds a line beautifully through corners, and stays comfortable on a long ride in a way that stiff modern frames simply do not. It is why riders keep coming back to them forty years later.
This one has been kept ready to ride rather than parked as an ornament. It rolls on newer Continental Ultra Sport tires with plenty of tread — a proper performance road tire, not whatever was cheapest — and the classic drop handlebars have been rewrapped with fresh black bar tape, so the contact points are clean and grippy from the first ride.
Whether you want a fast, characterful commuter, an entry into vintage road riding, or a stylish base for an eventual restoration or single-speed conversion, a French Peugeot is one of the best-regarded places to start.
