    I got one for 10 bucks in totally ridable condition.
    Looks like its worth it to clean it up nice and take care of it.

    Hi, do you know what tire dimensions are the most common on 80s Nishiki?

    • @IvansBikesBmws
      @IvansBikesBmws  Год назад

      They came with two options:
      One is 700c 23/25, the thiner ones
      2nd is 27 x 1 1/4 the thicker ones

    Very Nice Video. Good Looking Bike. Looks Very High Quality. I wasn't aware of Norco. Thanks for this.

      Tbh most of them have that bulky fork, but this one has very light Voight fork and frame. I am pleased. So the Magnum S.S. is to look for.

    Lol. You must be kinda new to road bikes. Get this. 600 is a great groupset. The thing is bikes like these were a dime a dozen. The rare gems are the early 70s japanese bikes like the miyata p-1 or p-2. Super rare these days and competed in the same markets against peugeots and raleighs and cinelli. Miyata ended up manufacturing for most companies because of those early release bikes they made.

      Yup back in the 80s dime and dozen, but very few preserved in this shape.

      @@IvansBikesBmws I have tons of minty rides from 60s+. Bike industry never really changes, in America there's over 700k bikes hanging in people's garages with less than 3 miles on them. I'd say my vintage road bike collection is about half of those. About a quarter full customs and a quarter full blown restos. Always nice to find them completely original unmolested. Covered in 50 years of dust. That's how I love them
