hey BF,
I just bought my first commuter this weekend. There were a few good options on CL and this forum was instrumental in helping me decide.
I ended up buying a 1979 Sekai 2400 that had been sitting in a garage for 10-15 years and is in need of some tlc. The guy I bought it from gave me a box of bike gear as well which included a helmet, some gloves, a ton of patch kits, and also all of the documentation that this bike came with originally and since accrued in the past 36 years. I thought the coolest bits were the original bill of sale and warranty card and the Sekai '79 catalog and I thought you guys might get a kick out of them, too.

thinking about putting some thicker tires and a mustache bar on for my casual commuter needs. still sifting through all the great threads on this site; information overload!
