There isn't much info on Kuwahara road bikes out there, but a near mint Kuwahara Count for free has catapulted me into the world of vintage road bikes. I am so excited to learn more adn get it rolling!

How rare are these Kuwahara road bikes? I'm pretty sure it's all original down to the tires. All the components are either Sugino GT, Nitto, Suntour and Dia-Compe. The frame is really very light and has a sticker that says Champion 3 Tubes 4130 Chromemoly Butted Tubing
