This guys is a bit different and not for me, but this is the next project.
It's in pretty great condition but needs some work. New cables. Fenders. Brake levers. Maybe a new rear derailleur. Tires eventually. Maybe wheels. A new basket. I'll probably just do the basics to start off.
I wanted to get some new brakes for it and couldn't find anything via the usual routes. I went into Mighty Riders:
Me - Hey, I'm looking for some new brakes for this bike.
Them - What's wrong with those?
Me - Well...these ones don't work. I'm going to replace the levers and cables, but if there is a cheap option I'd like to just replace these.
Them - Those will probably work fine if you do all that and change the brake pads. Besides, we don't have anything that will work.
Me - Could you order something in?
Them - I guess so. I wouldn't really bother though. That thing looks brand new anyway.
I like Mighty Riders. It's funny when shops don't seem to be able to get motivated to order something in for you.
Anyhow. It says "Peugot", but this will hopefully soon be the newest Lumberjack roaming the streets of Vancouver.
