Finished Peugeot ANC-Halfords!

[BretonM]

Hello again,
Just finished up the Peugeot ANC-Halfords.
I'll put some pics on.
Anyone got any opinions on how I did on the bike and any ideas on value.
Thanks

Looks nice and clean. Saddle appears to have been chosen for its colour rather than its quality? Value-wise, I'm not sure what you spent, but I wouldn't be expecting to make anything on it necessarily.

Nice build, not sure about the saddle and definately remove the ugly plastic spoke protector on the back wheel, completely unnecessary.
Value depends on what someone is prepared to pay but £80 ish imo.

Very nice, it's not going to be worth an awful lot as it was always a basic model. People who have negatively commented on the saddle are forgetting it was probably modelled after the famous UnicaNitor plastic saddle that was so popular in the sixties and nearly always came in orange. They were all the rage at the time, I know I had one. It was the first plastic saddle. The have since been revived by Cinelli and are available now for about 45 quid.

The saddles used by the ANC team were brown/orange Selle Italia Turbos.

Who cares what it's worth, the Carbolite tubing heavy as it is rides lovely on the road and very comfortable

Fantastic work.

It was on the bike when I got it and as there was nothing wrong with it I saw no reason to replace it.

Very interesting. What would we ever do without Google?

If you're going to keep it, or even if you decide to pass it on I'd get some replacement brake blocks that perform on wet steel rims otherwise rainy days might be a bit of a nightmare.

Google not required. But anyway, it beats conjecture.

Of course, how silly of me. Why would a person who knows everything use Google?

 

[MarquisMatsugae]

I would say that's a very nice little Peugeot.
Well done.

 

[Dogtrousers]

Very nice work.

I disagree with @Spiderweb re the spoke protector. I can't say I'm a huge fan of the things, but it's very much in keeping with the period of the bike, so keep it there.

Oh come come @Cycleops ,when Google need information they go to @S-Express
