6 speed Nishiki CitiSport Mixte 17" 4130 w/26" Araya
SOLD





Underside rear tire clearance

Front tire clearance, note extra room to the side of fender.
$200 $150 +Bike Flights Shipping
I will take it outside for more photos tomorrow, but here is a great condition 6 speed 80's CitiSport. I have not overhauled it, but it is remarkably clean and rust-free.
Paint is in exceptional condition, with only a few minor blemishes where expected. Paint is dark green with subtle metallic flake sparkle. There is at least one noticeable scratch on the rear fender.
17" center of BB to top of seat tube
21.25" effective top tube length
About 26.5" from ground to top of seat tube.
I added some unused Bell grips, black and gray. I also added the brown Breezer saddle which I think fits this bike well.
Cool 26" Araya rims with I believe Maillard hubs?
Suntour Power thumb shifter (6 sp)
Cheng Shin tires
Sugino cranks

howdy - what kind of tire clearance do you have on the frame? Will it clear more than a 2in tire? i cannot tell what's on there now from the photos - apologies if i missed it in the advert.
A friend of mine who ends up on nice bikes is trying to find something his wife might like to ride on dirt roads.
thanks.

Hey, sorry for the delay. I thought I'd get an email if someone responded. It currently has 1.5" on it, and it looks like it has good clearance for wider. I'm adding photos to the original post now if possible, or I'll add them in the comments.
