Peugeot Monoco Throwaway Saved it too !
#1
Well here's another one headed for the dumpster on a renovation site. Big project. Was watching the crane worker comes by said was throwing this bike in the dumpster. Asked if I wanted it ..What the heck sure ....
Needs TLC but rideable. Think its sold already and I really like the older Peugeot Yellow Allegra bike seems like a sturdy frame for my 220 LBS !
Enjoy the pictures !

nice low end road bike. I just picked a couple of similar bikes last weekend - not as nice as yours though.

I have another Peugeot model in Yellow I posted on this site. Needs work but think a steel sturdy frame steel wheels work best in the City streets. Alloys need trueing X3 yearly maybe can save a little $$$ with steel wheelset like on Peugeot yellow Allegre I posted earlier.

Thanks and compared to Fuji Schwinns I ve had it seems comparable at the low to mid end of the models. And Boy do I like FREE bikes !
