Going to Tokyo, Japan soon -- thinking about bringing a frame back
I have a trip to Asia soon, and will be in Tokyo Japan for 3 days. I'm only taking carry on luggage with me and I get 2 free checked bags on the way home. I ride 48cm, and can easily pack up a bike frame.
I'm thinking of exploring Tokyo craigslist/used bikes and maybe picking up a used bike frame. Any tips on what to look for? I've seen pics online of Japanese fixies and their bike scene. Looks like they have really cool stuff over there!
