I just sold my '74 Nishiki Competition last weekend. The bike is shown above, but it wasn't a great photo. Here's are a couple updated photos for posterity. I wanted to like this bike more than I did. It did it's job, but always felt a little bit sluggish and I never did warm up to the barcons. After spending a bunch of time restoring it, I hardly ever rode it.
