Show Us Your Bikes Starting With N
Here's your chance to show us your bikes alphabetically!
It goes like this: every fortnight I'll start a new thread with a new letter in alphabetical order. Post your classic and vintage bikes that correspond to that letter, eg; C = Cinelli, Carlton, Ciocc. M = Mercian, Masi, Motobecane. And so on and so forth. The letter of the fortnight should correspond with the marque, not the model. For example; you could post your Tommasini Prestige in the T thread, but not in the P thread. If you're not sure, take a look at the word on your downtube. There's a grey area with people's names - Bruce Gordon, Claud Butler, etc., but I'll leave it up to the owners which thread is preferred. Make sense?
So let's see your Nagasawas, Nishikis and Nationals!

Nieuwenhof. J.N.A.is for Jan Nieuwenhof Amsterdam.



Bought the abused and repainted frame a few years ago with the intent to restore it. Got a little discouraged when I saw what the original paint and decals must have looked like:

Bikes: A green one, "Ragleigh," or something.
1973 Nishiki Semi Pro, built for gravel grinding:

1995ish(?) Nishiki Cornice MTB converted to drop bars, further converted to 700c rims, which makes the BB height a bit problematic. I'll try it again as a 69er and we'll see...

1984 Nishiki Landau; an elegant looking bike and a nice ride:

Nice bike! Now, what I want to know is what else you keep in that hangar!
