It is a model from Peugeot Motocycles’ 176 series, dating from the 1950s.

The 176 AD is one of the “classic” versions: according to an auction listing, it uses the “old frame,” unlike other variants.

The 176 AD represented a “mass-market” model in the 175/176 range, while other versions, such as the 176 TC4, had more sporty characteristics.

The model reflects the dynamism of Peugeot Cycles/Valentigney at the end of the 1950s
