Looks like a soup can. Is that the one with parts from Swissguy in Berlin?Stripped down and trying out a Sachs three speed w/coaster fits great View attachment 807291
Got some nitto bars, Araya rims, leather new paint,I am curious to see where this is going.
Huh, I had an earlier version of the Monterey SL and am surprised they would spec Ishiwata 3xbutted for a bike at that level of the price range. I'd expect that in a Nishiki or a Fiori.Looks like a soup can. Is that the one with parts from Swissguy in Berlin?
I'm sure these guys would like to know that it's a lugged construction triple butted ishtawa frame. I love that Rhodes sticker, was a good shop
Funny thing that you mentioned those two brands, they were both associated with Norco, Fiori was actually a Norco sub brand to trick us into thinking they were Italian, not Canadian. I have a bike designed by Norco, made by Nishiki. I was surprised by ishtawa too, but mainly because I usually see Tange stickers on their products.Huh, I had an earlier version of the Monterey SL and am surprised they would spec Ishiwata 3xbutted for a bike at that level of the price range.
