83' Nishiki International

One more for the database. It’s an 83’ Nishiki International I just picked up, serial #CC 08655. It was built for the Canadian market with Tange No.2 double butted tubing. The “Tange 3F” stamp on the steerer suggests a June, 83’ manufacturing date and the Diacompe N500 sidepulls have “0683M” date codes. “GC” markings on the crankarms indicate they were made in March, 82’ while the “Z” and “ZD” codes on the front and rear Suntour AR derailleurs denote 83’ and April, 83’ manufacturing dates respectively.
