So I happened to buy this bike off Craigslist over the Christmas break, same serial number, not really sure if it was Jared or someone else who bought it from Jared (I guess I'm not too good with names). I was actually looking for a Dave Scott Ironman, but I wasn't find anything local and this Sekai was fairly similar. The Infinity tubing is really the only knock in comparison.

So here's how it looked when I got a hold of it. It looked like it must have been bought back in 1987, put in some corner of a garage when the first summer hit, and never ridden again. The green Avocet with no spoke magnet was somehow replaced with a Schwinn cyclometer which also had no spoke magnet, plus it had a new set of Vittorias.



I removed the cyclometer and Vittoria decals from the top tube first thing, found a set of 105 caged pedals (I go places with my bikes, not interested in carrying an extra pair of shoes when I get there), and replaced the Vetta saddle with a white Turbo. Here it is now:




I'm really happy with it. It's a great ride and despite quite a few rainy weekends here since I bought it, I've probably gotten my money's worth out of it already. I've Googled around quite a bit and have yet to find any other example of this bicycle, and I'm kind of curious to know how many of these were actually made.
