Spent some time stripping the Takara I picked up for its upgraded 700c wheels and Suntour barcons but I am going to see if I can resurrect it with some parts bin items back to its stem shifting, 27" wheels, stock self, make it functional and sell it on so it can be someone else's project. Both derailleurs have issues that need sorting but neither the stem or seatpost is stuck so there is hope.



Takara in the stand stripped of the good stuff


Complete Suntour barcons which I have already posted to eBay


my prize, a set of 700c Mavic Open pro rims with ultetgra hubs that will go on a Specialized Allez that came to me with no wheels.
