1986 Miyata Six Ten
Hi everyone,
I picked up this '86(?) Miyata Six Ten at a yard sale this week for $65 (The Brooks saddle I added). The guy who sold it said he broke his collar bone riding it a couple decades ago and it stayed in the garage ever since. The bike is in great shape and I'm looking forward to doing some touring this fall. I don't plan on flipping it but was curious about its value and anything else about this interesting Japanese vintage.
Thanks!

i just picked up the same bike for 61 bucks. i a blue 1984 six ten that i bought from a garage sale. Didnt think much of it. Then i started riding it. BAD ASS bike. never rode a road bike that much. Rodt every day for six months and someone stole it off my portch. So bummed. i Came up on this one and i dont like it nearly as much. would be willing to trade it for an 1984 miyata if anyone is interested.
