Hello folks, i just joined up and thought i'd introduc myself.

My names Jeffrey, my friends call me Jeffi. I'm from a really small town in the middle of texas and i've been doing all types of stuff with bmx bikes since i was able to ride bymyself, im mostly into freestyle bmx nowadays, but i've recently gotten into riding for sport(ie. road bikes) I've had a road bike for almost two years now and just started riding it a little over a week ago after i got some new tubes and tires for it.

I have no idea what brand it is, all i know is its loaded down with everything shimano. The owner of the bike shop i took it to( a ex road racer) said it was from 75', heres a picture of it.

Sorry its a crappy picture, i took it the same day i got it back from the bike shop. I do know it has, well had a sr headset on it, but those broke today(like five minutes ago) so i have ot buy a new set off the bay.

Dont mind the seat on it, there was a panasonic seat but it was all torn up so i threw on a extra seat i had from a cheapo walmart bike i had laying around.

I hope to learn some more about this bike because its a blast to ride around, and it definatley gets alot of looks! i can take some more pictures of more detailed areas later(i cant find the camera right now.lol)

I have no idea of the size of the bike, but the tires on it are 27" and im 6' 5" and i cant reach the ground when im sitting on the seat :lol:



Thanks, the bmxkid ;)

Welcome to Bike Forums, Jeffi. You might want to post this photo in the Classic & Vintage forum. I'm sure they will be able to tell you what kind of bike it is.
