First off this will be bike number 5 for me don't think the wife is too happy about that . So far I have a 1975 Hiawatha road bike rebuilt as a cruser, 1994 heavy tools ht laser, 1995 proflex 755, and a 1997 proflex 957. But one bike I have really wanted was a pre 1990 moutain bike. Well it looks like I will finally get my wish granted tomorrow in the form of a 1987 kuwahara sierra xt. The bike is from my friend who got it a year ago ever since then I have been bugging him to let me have it. Well he is finally letting it go after some dinner and beers. The bike is in perfect shape and looks like it has never been used. It 100 percent original from what I can tell aside from the tires. It has full shimano xt m730 groupo with the old ubrake under the chain stay in the rear. I will take some pics tomorrow and post them up asap.
Re: new retro bike tomorrow!!!!! ( kuwahara content)
Some more pictures from today. Just got it I have not cleaned it up so it will only get better. One of the first things is to get rid of the fat kendas and put on some tan wall wonderdogs I have set aside and a full strip down and clean. Let me know what you think.
