For Sale: Peugeot/Vitus Fibre De Carbone Bike

Up for sale is my Peugeot Vitus (979) Fibre De Carbone Bike.

I only use this frame on the Turbo now and it is a crying shame to do that, so I am knocking up a specific turbo bike.

The bike is fully serviced and runs beautifully.

Collection only or delivery at £1/Mile (Payment up front though), I will not post under any circumstances, so please don't ask.

I will take PayPal as a gift, but would prefer cash on collection.

Measurements are: -

Seat Tube 55cm C-C 56.5 C-T
Top Tube C-C 55cm

This was the exact model that Sean Kelly won the Tour De France on in the late 80's, it is very light and exceptionally strong.

The frame has carbon tubes, with aluminium lugs , chain stays and forks.

Apart from a little peeling and chips on the transfers, the frame is in excellent condition. The Carbon is perfect as is the Aluminium, no corrosion.

I am not looking to split.

The spec of the equipment is as follows: -

Campagnolo Chorus Chainset (Inner ring is Stronglight)
Campagnolo Seat Pin
Campagnolo Euros 20 Clincher 700c wheels, beautifully smooth and very true
Campagnolo Athena Brakes
Campagnolo Levers, not sure of the model, but presume either Chorus or Athena, please note the locking pin on the left hand lever is missing (This is used to slacken the cable for wheel removal), easily sorted by contacting one of the many Campag Vintage suppliers like Mercian Cycles in Derby.
Campagnolo Front and Rear Mechs, No markings on these, but am fairly certain they are Chorus 8speed.
Campagnolo 23/12 Cassette
The levers have been changed from the photo and are now Campag Record.
San Marco Rolls Leather Saddle
Cinelli Bars and Stem
Spidel Headset

NB The pedal, computer, saddle bag are not included, tyres are now Michelin 20c, not sure of model.

Points to Note

There is the odd flaking transfer.
Couple of chips to transfers
Odd Marks on rear rims from tyre removals
Locking Pin on Left Brake lever missing

The frame alone is worth over £350 and the wheels about £200, that is without the groupset etc.

I'm looking for £595 ovno. (As my first sale on here will donate £25 if I get the right price to LFGSS)

breathtakingly beautiful

15mm smaller and I'd have taken this :(

You are 15mm smaller

than you maybe.

someone buy this NOW, it's an absolute classic. very rare and utterly beautiful in the flesh.

(i don't know the seller, just these frames).

Sean Kelly won the TdF ? Fuck me I never knew.

Kelly, Roche, the Irish all look the same

Just wanted to confirm, all the lugs and bonding are perfect and I will guarantee that they are perfect.

I can deliver, but as I drive an American Car and live near Stafford it might prove a little expensive, but would do it at cost if it helps.

I'd love to, but it's too small :(

That is pretty special, i've never seen a lugged carbon frame before, very nice. Good luck with the sale.
