I was just given an old crusty road bike if anyone is interested.  It could be someone's fixie conversion.  I dont know.  If no interest here then it will be craiglisted.

size: I think a 61 cm
color: black gold logo lettering
components: old shimano 105
brand: Peugeot


The bike looks like it is in decent shape.  There is some rust on the cable housing stays  on the top tube, and on the nut holding the headset in place.  It doesnt shift, but it looks like it is because the deraileurs are stuck not broken.  It has been sitting for a while.  It could be used for racing, but would make a better commuter, or casual riding bike.  What ya think Blake?

Is it functional? 

Blake - you think Dan would fit a 61cm or would it be too big for him?

Oh wait, I think he rides a 58cm...nevermind

Let's just say I ebayed a steel lugged 80's Motobacane (made in France) frame only once and got $250.  Is the frame in nice condition?
