This is old pic of my Miyata 618GT touring/commuter ride. Spline Triple Butted CroMo frame, Shimano 8 spd with newer 105 derailleurs and downtube shifters
, LX v-brakes and Dia Comp levers, Mavic MA 3 rims with Deore LX hubs Armidillo tires and Blackburn racks. I found a stem adapter that allows me use a 1 1/8 diameter stem.The front shelf rack is a work in progress. Since this picture I've changed to a XD 600 crank, Brooks saddle, a Blackburn Expedition 2 rear rack and differrent front panniers. When I bought the bike it had Suntour componites and flat bars.
