Hey T-Mar,
could you give me your opinion on my Nishiki. I posted about it in the summer but I didnt get any replies here, then I put up a separate thread and thanks very much to wrk 101, curbtender, roccobike, bianchigirll and iverhagen for giving their opinions but I was wondering if I could get your opinion.
I got it a few years ago and it had already been extensively changed to 700c but I had to chance it even more.
The serial number is KS171108 so it appears that it is pre 1975. The thing is it has cantilever brakes and none of the pictures Ive seen of Nishikis like the competition from 1973 have that style of cantilever brake (incidentially I had to remove the rear cantilever brake frame mount as to accommodate a 700c wheel, the brake pads weren't in the right place at all so I put on a side pull brake).
