Sold: 53cm Takara Medalist Bicycle

Note, this Frame is sold: Takara 53cm Medalist bicycle

We love all bicycles. But we have a special place in our hearts for vintage bikes, ones that are Eroica-ride compliant. This Takara is a lovely example of a beautifully made bike that looks almost new. Let us build one for you!

Downtube shifters, quill pedals, lugged steel frame and external brake cables.

Given the Suntour Cyclone II derailleurs this looks like a mid-1980s bicycle

Classic fluted seat stays

External brake cables, gum hood covers, cast external sloping fork crown.

Takara bikes are beautifully brazed. Note the clean lug lines.
