I have unrepentantly rebuilt mine with all French components, mostly Mavic. But I think Peter's point, and mine earlier, was that Peugeot did in fact maintain "Tous Francais" equipment throughout the 70's and into the 80's, while most other French makers were offering Campy models in the early 70's and Gitane was even using Sugino Mighty cranks on some Tour de France examples in 1972 or 1973.

Got an off list comment that the Full Campy PZ 10 D was available in 1980. Probably even before that in West Germany...

Change out those Campy parts for all French? Knock yur self out... it's a free country.
