This one reminded me of the Sekai 500 I was given by a neighbor, esp those decaled hubs and that DB (mine wasn't even CrMo) tubing diamond-shaped decal.

I really liked riding that big bike with it's very relaxed frame angles. I upgraded it to a nicer, half-step triple crank, which I found amusing in use, and later traded the bike very profitably for a Honda motorcycle!

Oh, and 3alarmer, I'd almost forgotten about the Sac'to Bike Kitchen since finding a barely-used PX10 (for $150) at their swap meet years ago at the former location. Any future swaps planned?
