I've just got hold of a Peugeot U09 (I think thats what it is/looks the same as Splatbuckets and JasonV's)
I've nearly got it fully stripped and ready for a re-spray.
Anyway: It says it's a french one on the frame. I've heard that the french frames will be french threaded for the BB. Aswell as different seat post and stem sizes.
Does anyone have any advice or experience with this model (JasonV?) and how I can cope with these potential problems?
Any help and advice about parts and wheels (to get the right chainline etc) would be appreciated.
Style-wise I plan to keep it Retro (Chrome & shiny/wheels, cranks etc). I'll probably go for a riser bar though.
