I was watching a dumpster that a home owner (along my daily riding route) was filling over the past week. Yesterday, I saw it; a bike seat sticking out of the top of the dumpster. I approached the house, spoke with the owner; he said, "go right ahead, the dumpster is being picked up tomorrow." I just saved this bike from the trash heap. Its a Lotus Excelle; Shimano Arabesque; Sugino Super Mighty cranks; The real score was the long cage RD. I cannot ID the exact year; I thinks its a 1981 or 1983. Drop outs are Shimano.
