I just posted this in the Miyata 1000 thread with more details, but figured I'd share here as well.

A real time capsule Miyata 610 that I sold this past fall! Wish it had been my size

Just finished rebuilding my '83 Expedition I found back in January. Took it on a quick ride last night and it's like riding on a cloud. Updated the cockpit (Nitto B135, Nitto Technomic, and TRP RRL) and swapped in a new Tange cartridge BB, but other than that all original. Every component was stripped, cleaned, polished, and lubed as needed. Looking to take it on an extended ride this weekend.

Great looking bike, but the background is very 'busy'.. hoping you'll post again with a more complementary background.

Thanks, and agreed. Needed a quick spot to prop it when I took those and that wall just happens to be the wall to my backyard so it was easy enough.

84 or 85 Expedition.

Thanks polymorphself. Yeah it's insane and huge, but could you even picture a medium/normal sized bag with that headtube? I am glad that it worked out.

I do enjoy much smaller bags up front aesthetically when volume isn’t needed, I think a medium would also look really good! The filling out of the head tube with this bag is nice though. Ends up perfectly under the bars.

Is there velcro or some other means to hold down the top flap when riding, other than the rather long elastic loop? Do you think a decaleur would eliminate the need for side straps? Thanks Doc |

That's a RuthWorks bag, right? Have been looking at bags lately and theirs look like they're well designed and made. couple questions:

Do you think a decaleur would eliminate the need for side straps? Thanks Doc There's no velcro on the top flap, but that is a good idea. For whatever it's worth, I bought this bag partly because it is one of the tallest ones available(without going custom). And. The color appeals to me. |

Nope it's friction shifting, not indexed. If that's what you mean.

They look just like the shifters on my '85 Miyata 610, which are Shimano L-412, And are part of the Light Action group I believe. They do have a ratcheting, not indexed, action kind of like some of the Suntour shifters. They are pretty nice.
