Mystery frame and fork
Hello,
I recently acquired a bike and in a year have still not figured out exactly what it is. The bike came complete with a 7402 rear derailleur, 7700 front derailleur, cinelli stem and bars, dura ace bar end shifters, 600 tri-color hubs, dia compe brakes and levers. I believe the tubing is Tange 1 and the frame was made my nishiki (based off the original decals) but I can’t find it anywhere. Tried the serial number database and it’s not in there. The serial number and other number I found are in the pictures below! Thanks in advance for any help regarding what it is or could be worth!

Hello Alj10571 ,
yes, the serial number is consistent with some Nishiki models. The frame was manufactured in 1990, month 03, in Taiwan.
I have seen Prestige model frames that are similar, but the paint colour was always red.
The Nishiki Tri-A model was also similar, but may have been from 1989.
