Peugeot cross frame, circa 1890

This beautiful original Peugeot cross-frame was estimated 1890. Serial number is not known, owner says it is a Peugeot because that brand name is inscripted on both cranks. There are some interesting and unique details. it still has the left side chain. And then: the chain has to be adjusted by pulling the whole lower part of the seat tube forward. Never seen this construction elsewhere. Rear wheel is fixed.

With its original mudguards and saddle it is a superb original bike.
I made a page mentioning all featured Peugeot bicycles and more info on serial numbers.
