I found a 58cm C-C PX10, 1970, at the Trips4Kids bikeswap Saturday for $150.

Bike was sans wheels but otherwise 100% original. Crusty (dirty) with lots of small scratches, but no rust or dents and the decals all look pretty good, the chrome looks good, and even the French Reynolds stickers are 80% there. The AVA bars are bent and the stem too long, so a 100% resto is unlikely for now.

I have a few questions:

Did any of these come with Brooks Pro saddles? Did Peugeot offer small frame size increments or the inch-and-a-half increments like Raleigh? My U08 is listed as 24-1/2" and I'm also wondering if Peugeot used inch sizes for the better bikes?
