A lovely bike, quite a good spec'd bike in its day. The tubing makes a very responsive ride.
Recently serviced. wheels nice and true with plenty of life in them. Fully stripped down and cleaned. New gear and brake cables, inner and outer. New bar-tape, chain, saddle, tires and inner tubes.
Usual marks on frame, odd scratch and paint chip nothing to worry about, has been used and loved.

Hi...what size is the seatpost on this, please?

Hey, the seatpost is 26.8mm but I reckon the frame is designed for 27mm, I tried 27.2mm but that's a no go. Haven't got around to ordering one.

Haha, never said a good one :P odd French Frame size with no information available online. The owner before me tried to sell it with a 26mm. Fits far more snug now.

Just yanking your chain: it looks very tidy! :0

That's odd, the unusually sized Pug-post people usually struggle with is smaller than that: 24mm or 24.8mm, depending on the source.

Thron was available with either 0.9mm or 1.0mm tubes, which would need a post of either 26.8mm or 27.0mm unless it's a metric tube.

I'm not sure Columbus ever offered metric tubes, but Peugeot were big enough to have had whatever they wanted...

Thanks, I'm a big fan of the colour scheme. Just don't have the space.
Interesting, I didn't know that about Columbus. Cheers for the information.
