4 Spd Peugeot

[Torpedo]

My latest find,nothing special but a little different...older Peugeot Nouveau-small bike,looks like a folder but it's not,has a 4 spd and rolls on 22"s needs a good cleaning and tune up.Bike is probably from the 1970's or so.

Interesting find. I knew Schwinn had 22" tires at one time.

i had some other European bikes with 22"s like this old Motobecane folder but because of the uncommon tire size these 22"s are getting hard to find if you need to replace the rubber!

I assume if Schwalbe is making them there is still some demand.

Thanks for the feedback cman,i thought those 22"s might be near extinct by now but i guess they are still available-Good to know

I see the IMPALA back end there and like it.Is that art deco or is there a function for it?

The Impala rear clip is a piece of car furniture Jay Dawg,it's a work in progress and will eventually become an executive desk or a bar(havent decided yet)I make custom car furniture in my spare time-just something different that combines history and art and looks cool 8)
