Koga Miyata Gents Racer Carbolite 58cm - SOLD

[Tel]

Size is 58cm x 55.5cm (ct x cc)

Very nice Koga Miyata Gents Racer Carbolite featuring carbon main frame with aluminium stays and forks.

Frame is in nice condition although does have a few marks here and there, the only one of note though is the laquer peeling around the top tube guides. The alloy is a lovely black with gold dust effect which looks very nice.

Groupset is Shimano 600 Ultegra 8 speed with 105sc downtube shifters (the shifter cover is cracked and held together tidily with tape, works fine).

1992 model. The full correct name is Koga-Miyata GentsRacer-Carbolite. I have the 1991 model.

Essentially your frame is the same as the FullPro-Carbolite of the 1992 year, except for that the later has carbolite stays and blades.

Thanks. I've corrected my post. I wasn't 100% sure as the model badge is missing, I can vaguely make it out but not quite....

Thanks again.

Oooh, that's nice.

If I didn't have so many bikes and so little room I could be tempted.

But I'm not - sadly

You turn out some lovely machines Tel........and this is another beaut!

 

[clockworkgazz]

that is stunning Tel, wish I could justify it- what weight is it do you know?

 

[Tel]

Thanks for the comments guys, it is indeed (another ) lovely bike.

Good question regarding the weight. Feels reasonably light I reckon about 20 - 21 lbs I'll try weighing it tomorrow.

 

[Tel]

On my far from great luggage scales it came in at 10kg - 22lbs

If this is still available I would be interested Tel. Would you be prepared to post as far as Newcastle?

Sure postage to Newcastle is not a problem.
