Ok folks, here's another head-scratcher.......for me, at least.
Apparently Toshiba (I assume it's the same guys as all the electronic stuff comes from) also made
bicycle frame tubing. I was at the local vintage bike shop today and was looking at this very nice
Nishiki when I noticed this strange label as shown below. Does anyone have more insight into
how popular their tubing was ?? Did they actually have their own tubing plant......or did they just
rebrand someone else's tubing ?? All info greatly appreciated.
