PEUGEOT SPORT  - INTRODUCTION

This early eighties Peugeot Sport was a second from bottom of the line offering from Peugeot Canada.  The models offered in this series included the Club, Sport, Super Sport and Trophy.  This beautiful black Sport was in near mint condition, when I acquired it, and an absolutely gorgeous Panasonic came with the bike.  Sadly, I do not have any pictures, of the Panasonic, thanks to a complete, and data unsaved, computer melt down.

This particular Peugeot model was, probably, the most popular of all, in the series.  Popular because of initial price only, and certainly not because of any level of sophistication.  That said, the ride qualities were quite similar, to the other models, offered in this line up, thanks to the identical frame set that all models used.
