>>1679272That bike is good as a project and source of parts but not as-built. It could be worth that much because it's not your usual department store bike boom ten speed.
If he's not lying about the weight, the frame itself is going to be a great base. Fits wider tires while being what seems like a pretty light lugged steel frame with a comfy amount of wheelbase. Swap to some light wheels and other parts and it'd be a good sport machine.
The bar end shifters, guarded crankset and centerpull brakes are useful for building a grabbel bike or grocery getter.
He also is listing that it comes with other shit at the end and by putting "OBO" you could probably walk him down 50-100 bucks off.
If you stripped it down to just the frameset, BB, headset, and bottle cage you'd be looking at around 250-300$ alone.
Having said all that it's not a good "first bike" unless you plan to wrench it yourself.
>>1679472A lot of 70s peugeots in the US were bike boom crap made to compete with Schwinn. There were a couple good models but their naming system is confusing and they are all painted pretty much the same so it's hard to tell if you have a good one or not. The mid-late 80s peugeots are much better because they had their own tubing production running and were internally-brazing their mid-low end models, having moved up to (from what I know) mostly competing with raleigh. They also gave up the retarded french threading standards, but you still find Maillard, Sachs, and CTC parts on them alongside Shimano, with the top end models being either Shimano or Campy depending on year.
