I have asked before about this bike but no one could answer the question. I purchased the bike at at local flea market a number of years ago for a fair prce. I recognized the quality of the bike when i saw it so I bought it and it is a great ride. I guess it is a mid 80's bike... Columbus Matrix tubing... shimano 600 brakes, crank... Suntour Cyclone 7000 6spd index shifting front and rear deurailures... duralce hubs... Matrix rims.

I have never heard of this manufacurer before and want to know where and when it was manufactured.

never heard of DC Douglas. This looks to be a very nice bike, good parts and good quality steel for the frame.

Douglas DC-3 gooney birds, though...

I thought of the DC-3 too when I saw the title. My dad flew the 3's and the 4's back before the age of jets. There's a C-47 (think that was the military designation) that flys overhead every year at one of the big 4th of July celebrations locally.
