For the Sekine fans who might have missed seeing my SHL270 Sekine Mixte, I will repost here. It is a really nice bike but will be for sale soon. No family has stepped up to the plate, I have a nice Raleigh Mixte and mrsbrowngw prefers her 76 Raleigh step through.
This bike is a Canadian made Sekine from around 1974. As far as I can tell it is a SHL 270 (Ser.
#7A43524 ). The friend who gifted it knew little about it except she thought that her father had removed the drop bars. The cheap replacement brake levers were badly rusted which was not in character for this well finished bike so that could have been the case. The fork is Tange 6 chromed. Frame size is 21 in.
Altogether I have $75 dollars in it and now I have to find it a good home. Many hours have been spent bringing this one back, but it is this years first "winter project" and it is a gem.
