-mods, please move this thread if this is the incorrect forum. I figured it would be easiest to find answers here, rather than the Vintage, or Folding forums.-

I have desperately been trying to find out what these bikes are. Make / model / years. I've searched everywhere. I am assuming these are vintage bikes from Japan. The camouflage one looks custom. I have Googled the other Pepsi bike and came up with nothing. I know that a company called Palmino repops a similar bike that they call "dog bicycle," but the frame is totally different. I would really appreciate any useful info to try and track one of these down in the States.
