Sadly this came up a bit big for me and I have many, many other projects to deal with! Full bike in great nick, not top end but a turn-key classic nicely built in Japan for the UK market. Almost full original spec but with period Reydel saddle, newer gumwall tyres and S.R pedals, new brake blocks fitted and whilst the cables, tyres, chain and freewheel aren't new there is plenty of life in them and they're in good nick.
Considering the age it's in great condition with some surface rust spots to the brake cable guides on the top tube and a few other marks to show it's had some use, it also sustained a scratch on the under side of the downtube in transit pictured below which is hard to see normally.
Full spec:
Hirame 'Suma' model frameset as listed here with chromed fork:
Shimano 600 Arabesque front mech
Shimano Eagle rear mech with bash guard
S.R 3 bolt double road chainset
S.R pedals with chrome clips and NOS Lapize vegan toe straps
Shimano down tube shifters
5 speed freewheel
Weinmann brakes with suicide levers (removable)
Kuwahara chrome headset
S.R alloy stem and steel bar
Strong alloy seat post
Reydel GTi saddle
Normandy large flange hubs laced to Weinmann concave 27" rims
27" x 1 1/8" Gumwall tyres
Black cork tape
Weinmann shorty mudguards
Sizing:
Top tube centre to centre: 54 cm / 21.5"
Seat tube centre to centre: 53cm / 21"
1" headset
27" wheels
£175 - located in SW London, can box up properly for a courier though.
