The highest end frame Peugeot has ever built

The CF 708PC

The CF708 PC was created by Peugeot which was the sponsor and brand of the famous pro  "Team Z" in 1987 for the season 1988, but in the meanwhile Peugeot left the competition and were stuck with a serie of  frames stamped with the "Z"  , so in 1992 they decided to offer those frames to the public market and was introduced in their brochures only for one year.

This frame is made of very special internal fluted tubing ( just alike a gun barrel) to minimize the weight and to maximize the rigidity. 

Few of those frame were actually bought by the public market because they were very expensive and also because peugeot sold very rarely naked frame, only complete industrial production   bikes.

The buyer had to order this frame and had to equipe it with whatever he desires, here, Campagnolo Athena first Generation.  This particular examplar was assembled at the Cycl'in" shop in Saint Etienne, France.

We present here one of these frame, only two of them are kown to us, cheers
