200- Peugeot Prologue Custom with full Campagnolo Veloce 10sp gruppo

The Peugeot is used through the winter months on the cruddy roads. It's a steel Prologue frame from the 90s - to save money buying a new frame, I whipped off the old (seen better days) 7 speed/triple Tiagra groupset and fitted the Veloce to it - it runs well, but I'll buy a new winter frame in the Spring and build that up over Summer. I swap the KEOs off the Felt and now it has Crud Roadracer mudguards.

    I like the Peugeot - subtle styling. Classic looks with modern parts is a win for me!

    Thanks guys. I like the styling too (if I say so myself!), but I need a more relaxed geometry frame for next winter. Hopefully I'll be able to find something just as subtle!

    Just to be clear - you dug up a 5-year old thread, to post a pic which isn't even relevant to the thread topic?

    And I no longer own these bikes. One went to a stranger and the other to my brother.

    Good work on the resurrection!
