Peugeot Hippo bike review
Peugeot produced the Hippo bike in 1999 and can be classified as a Youth bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $190.00.Peugeot Youth Hippo can be found in one single color which is Yellow.
This bike is equiped with 20 x 2.00" Kenda K-850 tires and Sapim steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Rigida AS-26, 28-hole. Peugeot equiped this exact model with Chang Star VB-911 D brakes, Chang Star VL-387D levers braking system and Front: Joy Tech-301, Rear: Joy Tech 434 hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Peugeot used Hi-tensile steel material for the frame. Steel high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Hippo to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of SLU-100.
For the smoothest biking experience CW-140-C is used on this bicycle linked to KMC HP-20 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Peugeot, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano-SL RS30-5 gear shift levers.
