Is there some classic bike model that you think of when you hear SunTour?

And a similar question: When hunting for a SunTour groupset, was any common model fully equipped with a SunTour top of the line groupset?
The '85 Trek 460 (little racer brother to the 760 above) was equipped with the then new Cyclone S RD and it works like no other. Smooth and quick shifts. I'd love to put one on the Techie PRE.

The "S" would rock on any Columbus/Vitus/531. But that's just me.
