I'm not sure of the year, but something horribly wrong happened to that kickstand right there.

This isnt too difficult. There are two-digit date marks on the hubs, crank arms and pedals. Look them over real good and you'll get a close idea, like within a year after. My Super Mirage has '78 markings on the parts but the paint scheme is '79.

Take a close peek and get back with us.

A Mirage was the last road bike I had before it got stolen, back in 1976. It came stock with a cottered crankset and drop bars.
