Miyata 1000LT with upgrades and extras
Selling this low-mileage Miyata 1000LT with upgraded parts. Very clean. I understand it was built by Velo Classique. Edco Competition triple cranks, Edco Competition sealed bearing hubs, Edco headset, Nitto lugged stem, Velo Orange handlebars, Suntour front and rear derailleurs, Brooks B17 saddle, Wolber Alpine rims, Compass 32mm tires, Dia Compe cantis, Suntour bar-end shifters. Even has the little plastic plugs still in the mid-fork rack mount holes. PO double-wrapped the handlebar tape. Might be leather style tape under this top layer. Comes with handmade leather seat bag, MKS toe clips and leather straps, and front and rear racks. May be able to throw in a handlebar bag as well. I believe the size is what Miyata called a 60 cm, with a 58 cm top tube. Asking $825 plus actual shipping. Located near Atlanta, GA.

Really nice. And a one of a kind build. Glad it's way too big for me. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to get it out of my mind.

If I had any more room I would have snapped that up in a heartbeat, my size and everything, always wanted one of those lugged stems and a Miyata, what's not to love. Unfortunately I am overflowing with an embarrassment of (bicycle) riches. If I drag one more stray home I WILL be put out on the streets. 
I feel like it's a violation of my human rights, but what are you gonna do?

I JUST bought one that I found locally, same model year even. If that hadn't happened, I'd be all over this one. Such a beautiful bike and build!

Just as well, I should really just sell mine outright. Ive been hoping to find someone to swap for ages and its just not happening. I think the universe wants me to make some room before sending a 1000Lt my way
