This, obviously desirable, Peugeot bicycle, fitted with a de Vivie gear system, was advertised in May 1905 at 85 francs and again in March 1906 at 70 francs.

For some reason it has 3 brakes - 50% more than seems obviously required. The frame size of 67 cm seems a little on the large side. Perhaps I am misunderstanding something.
