Hong Kong source for Flying Pigeon-style bikes

Hi, I'm heading to Hong Kong from Okinawa next weekend and would like to find a Flying Pigeon or similar Mao-era design working bike to bring back, for giggles. When I was there before I remember seeing a decent number of old school utility bikes, I think the brand names were Hercules and Phoenix. I'm looking for a large frame with double top tube and rod brakes. Does anyone have any recommendations and how much I might expect to pay? - Thanks

Not a clue, but I can probably ask around for you.

One of the LBS will be able to get you one for sure.

PM me.
