Yes, the tube and flanged frame joints are certainly from that era.

Nice bike (and your trusty D700/50mm are still going strong as well) - quality is evident in both camera & bike.

Morning ride. I learned that the Premier bikes were assembled in Brisbane (Australia) in the 80s with frames & parts imported from Japan.

Thanks Hugh! Yes other than being a bit loud, the D700 & my old prime lenses are still producing good results. As for the bike, I recently got interested in steel, vintage bikes. So more photos coming soon :-)

Yes - aside from the practical value, the make the bike look nicer imo.  :)

There is a no shortage of bicycles to rent in front of Union Station in downtown Toronto. Only a madman would ride one around those streets.

I discovered a lot of classic Peugeot bikes on an interrail trip to Paris (among other cities and towns..) this summer. Remember they were popular in Norway in the eighties.

Thanks Frank!

Actually, there used to be a car parking lot there which has been "exchanged" for this bike parking.
