And yes, interesting canti post placement.
Hi, serialnumber starts with a S so i guess it makes it to a 1990. The former owner bought it from his LBS new in Sweden 1993. My brother has a miyata 912 that looks almost the same so i think there is some european stuff going on with the layout. If someone is offended by a 912 in the 1000 thread i will immediately delete it!
Yeah the canti post placement is a diffrent from the bikes i’ve seen. It moves the cantis away from the panniers but makes the brake cable routing a bit more ugly imo.
Water bottles are only for show, it gives a noticeable flavor of thirty year old plastic to the water...
