1996 i bought a Paul Donohue racer, 25" frame lugged Reynolds 531c including 531c forks. Groupset was 16 speed Shimano RX 100. 52/42 chainset and 12/24 eight speed cassette. Sti shifters, dual pivot brakes. Mavic open pro rims, 32 spokes, rx 100 hubs. Continental grand prix tyres 23mm. Rolls saddle. Look pedals. Did 10 and 25 mile time trials on it, and audax rides up to 300 km. Recently overhauled it, not to your fantastic standard. The brakes are still very good and the gears work flawlessly, the only negative that this bike has is that its extremely flexible. Im no slower on this bike than i am on my most recent 2022 shimano 7000 equipped bike. Its down to the power one can produce. Training is all. Thanks for showing us another extremely thorough restoration, heartening to watch.

@Bikespeeds I bought it at the Cattin shop in Crolles. They also made their own bike frames and still exist today.

Nice restauration of a classic bike, that must have taken hours. In 95 I bought my first real bike, a peugeot competition 400 with rx100 7 speed groupset (except the brakes which were exage 300ex). The indexed shifters were located on the main tube like in this video. I upgraded to rsx sti shifters later but it was not as sleek. The tubing was made of columbus cromor, less competitive than the 531. The best steel tubing I tried later was probably the columbus genius and gilco tubes.

@@Bikespeeds Indeed it was easy to buy a Peugeot here in the 80's and 90's because there were many dealerships, and they would take back your old bike and offer a discount on your new bike. Also they usually had a good variety of bikes, especially the team line series, until 2000.. However I should have bought a Decathlon at that time, they had better equipment for the same price and their tubings were treated inside against corrosion.

I had that bike since my 15/16th birthday (1980/1981) and rode many thousands of kilometers on it. It got stolen at a Metro station when I was 28 or something like that... I replaced it with a rather expensive Giant MTB / hybrid that got stolen within 2 weeks (and apparently I forgot to confirm the insurance I thought I got for it....).
