Eric and All,

Having been fond of Mavic (almost as much as Suntour!!) from early on, I'll offer my ca '86 suggestions for your Peugeot: Hubs: 500RD; Rims: Choose/GEL-280/GL-330/GP-4; Front/Rear Derailleurs: 851; Shifters: 820 (The Retrofrictions); Headset: 310; Bottom Bracket: 600RD; Crankset: 640 (I don't think the 631 appeared until '88??); Pedals: 600; Brakes: 420 (Modolo Professionals or Speedys??) Seatpost: I don't think a Mavic seatpost appeared until the late 80's (even perhaps early '90's?).

Sounds as if you have already been advised to look elsewhere for Bars and Stems!!!

Cheers,
