    Looks good, is it finished yet? I have a PDM bike myself, with PDM logos instead of Concorde. Unfortunately, I had a collision with a car and ruined the fork and also slightly bent the frame, so it is considered a total loss by the bycicle shop I took it to, where they told me it was worth about EURO 175,- But since the bike is pretty rare, especially with PDM stickering, I reckon it’s worth more than that. What do you think?

    my first “real” racing bike in 1989/1990 was a Concorde PDM – loved it – did all my time trials on it – they were the big Dutch team back then – Sean Kelly?? rode for them then – my favourite riders were Steven Rooks and Gert Theunisse – Dutch of course – then Erik Breukink – this was about the Greg Lemond era – I loved the bikes though and had the PDM jerseys to go with it – Rudy Dhaenens won the World Championships on a Concorde – so this bike of yours is certainly a collectors piece – of course the team ended because there was drug allegations in 1991 – PDM pulled out in 1992
