Looks like a Nishiki Pro. The fastback seat stays. They were early to use vertical dropouts on steel frames.

Well it appears to be a fillet brazed frame.

I'll say Toyo.

I found this on them, although it says they started around 1973. There are pictures of him doing that style seat clamp area which could be a signature thing.

You are right about the fillet brazed frame (but not Toyo)

roy5000x2 11-08-09 04:04 PM

is it a Miata?

Shame on you for having such a nice bicycle frame languishing in an attic for so long.

neuronal 11-08-09 04:21 PM

Guerciotti?

love2pedal.com 11-08-09 04:34 PM

Nope--still waiting for Brand and Model...keep guessing.

I stopped riding it in about 1986 and it has been sitting since then. Back in 1986 it wasn't considered cool & vintage - it was considered an out of date bike.

I don't know what inspired me to give it that Miami Vice/Duran Duran pastel paint scheme!

I've only seen one frameset consistently built like that, but I figure the guy copied someone else's seatstay arrangement. He's a good builder though.

JP Weigle

I dunno if he's still building frames now.

Nope, not a Weigle.

This was a regular production model I am pretty sure (or very similar to regular production). I don't even know if the manufacturer did custom frames or not. I don't think of them as a custom builder.

I have seen pictures of one posted on Bike Forum about a year or so ago that was almost identical to mine but with the factory paint.

I paid the equivalent of $240 for the whole bike (hint: I didn't pay in US$)
