No idea what it is was hoping someone could give me an idea to what it might be. When I bought the bike it was equipped with mostly shimano 600. It has vertical drops indoor cable housing and derailer guiders at the bottom of the frame( I don't know the proper terms). Any ideas help.

Thanks

I've seen the frame before. The tipoff is the seat tube cluster and the way the seat tube is inserted, sort of like a lug. Somebody else will tell you what it is for sure.

"It's a Nishiki. LAte 80's-early 90's. Lol." Should have read back on old post, thanks

It should be 1985-87, trying to find a catalog or possible model type to determine tubing.
