The components are a little funky. The brakes are Tourney, the front and rear derailleurs are Altus. I thought Altus was a MB part? The crank is a Takagi. The shifters (Shimano) look to be mounted on the handlebar stem (they were removed). The cable guides are all clamped on. The levers are Shimano Dee 50 and the handle bars are ALP Champion. The stem is Ace.
Thanks Brad
Brad54, Sorry for the delayed reply, as I try to stay in touch with all who post to this thread. Pictures would help alot. If you saw my 1979 above, I put altus shifters on the riser bars,'cause that was what I had sitting on the bench at the time. I am glad to report that I'm over that phase and have returned to the drop bars with 600 downtube shifters.My serial # is M9J20734 or October 1979 frame date. PGMikeT p.s sorry about the busy background of my way overcrowded garage bench, outdoor pics soon...
