1990 Miyata Century

WOW! What a special frame and pristine build. Feels more like a museum piece than a bike!

Prefer the tan walls to black tyres as they compliment the gold IMO by bringing in an element of colour/tone.

Hey Jourian:

I was just talking about these bikes tonight! I can confirm your details about the original owner. Wilhelm Grieb of Montgomery Cyclery bought #1, 2, and 3. #1 was Willy's, #2 was his wife's and #3 was his son's. I worked at Montgomery Cyclery from 1989-1992 and was there to see the unboxing and building of these bikes. #1 was hung from the ceiling in the middle of the showroom floor. (I'm not sure if it's still there.)

Congrats on a great find!
