Any documentation regarding the history of the bike Hummer? We are all stuck on exactly why these bikes exist. Lots of speculation but no hard documentation like build sheets or at least accounts from people that worked at the factory or people that worked at or owned bike shops back in the day when they were built in the 70s.
Hello @
Sekine1974 and @
BikeCrazy24,
sorry I missed these posts. I am only on bikeforums.net periodically so I do not see everything when it is first posted.
I cannot tell you anything more about that chromed Sekine. The pictures were taken several years ago and I think the bicycle has changed ownership.
I have seen this model and year of Sekine in blue and red, both with half chromed stays and fork. The paint was coming off the stays and fork and it looks like chrome underneath the paint. I could not tell if the main tubes and lugs were also chrome underneath the paint.
