Nishiki Altron 7000

I was looking up a particular Nishiki bike and this link on a sale for an Altron 7000 showed up. The Altron is one of Nishiki's high end models and it sold for $225.
(that's cheaper than what I would have expected. I didn't know buying at auctions is so cheap; but I think you need to have some sort of license)

listed as old 10 speed bike. asking $20; no mention whether the death fork got replaced

Looks like some flavor of an original cast ALU alloy "Death fork" so wasn't ever replaced AFAIK.
So for $20 "life is cheap, but death is cheaper"!

The new replacement forks for the Viscount were Tange chrome forks. Maybe they still honor the recall.

Agreed. It's the recalled fork. Can't tell from the picture which iteration of the fork. Still, for $20 it might be worth a look, if you're local.

Nobody needs these.

But of those nobodies, I would estimate a good fraction participate in the C&V subforum
Thanks for posting this, best way to put them out there.

I had one of these, just a different model year. Surprisingly fast ride that really carried speed well and was quite comfortable.

Celo Europa - $600 - Carlsbad, CA
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...tory_type=post
from ad: "Celo Europa vintage blue mountain bike purchased from Marcel in his Manhattan Beach shop in the 1980s. It has hardly ever been used and been garaged all this time. Marcel was a local vendor legally using Colnago frames and putting his name on them. He still has a shop in Laguna Beach. I believe we replaced tires maybe 10 years ago but can't confirm. Happy to send more pics and video if interested."
