Hello to all,

I have been following the comments on the PX-10. I remember when they came out it was the bicycle equivalent of the Suzuki X 6 a couple years earlier. The fast guys had em. The Vintage Peugeot PX 10 on E bay looks much better than what I remember them looking like though. I had wanted a PX-10E in the early 70's I ended up with a Schwinn Paramount in black, as the bike shop in my home town didn't carry Peugeot or any other foreign stuff. The Schwinn was a very pretty bike though and I rode it for over 10 years. Recently I found a Paramount of the same vintage and have restored it. It's still a beautiful bike and rides well. Oddly enough I have shown the bike to several bike enthusiasts and the reaction is mixed. Like the Peugeot it has the stigma of not being a Masi or Cinelli There for not a real bike pro bike, oh well their loss not mine. I would like to ride the Peugeot though not just hang it on the wall.
