A little bit of my bicycle history, I started with a 05' Bianchi Super Pista then onto a IRO, Moth, Affinity Lo Pro, 90s GT GTB and now my FIRST NJS track bike is on transit! I'm throwing all my Nitto NJS parts including my Sugino 75, Nitto stem and drop down, etc. from my GTB bike to upcoming frame.
Since I'm new to NJS, I have a few questions...
- Are NJS frames still in production? This bike states "Model Year/2014" but I can not find anyone who owns one. I searched google images and tons of websites but I can't find it
Anchor Red Metallic 2014 {51.5cm** | NJS?EXPORT
- How heavy are NJS bikes compared to my previous owned bikes?
- Why are so many dents and scratches on NJS bikes? Even on spots I would never guess would have a dent.
- Why the high price? Perhaps because its made in Japan and most or all of them are handbuilt?
- Why are there shiny flakes on some of their frames?
I hope I didn't say anything ridiculous. I'll revise and edit the thread if anything.
Let's talk NJS.
