Koga Miyata Gent's Racer 1984

Back to list

Bought this bike on ebay.de, when to get it in Sarrebrücken. The bike was in very good condition, but:
  • the original saddle was still there, but not in good condition
  • the original pedals had been replaced with very ugly and modern Look pedals. I removed those and put in some cheap 'classic' pedals which I also got off ebay.de
  • the original wheels had been replaced with a more modern set, which have Dura Ace hubs and Wolber rims. I kept these because they ride really well.

Technical specifications

  • Frame: Koga Miyata steel
  • Frame size: 59 cm
  • Fork: Koga-Miyata HiManga steel
  • Derailleurs, brakes: Shimano 600
  • Chainset: Shimano 600 with 2 chainrings (52 and 39)
  • The original cassette was a Shimano Uniglide with 7 sprockets: 23-21-19-17-15-14-13. I replaced it with a Shimano Hyperglide cassette with 7 sprockets: 32-28-24-21-18-15-13, which makes the bike better suited for the hilly Eroica rides.
  • Wheels: Shimano Dura Ace hubs with Wolber rims
  • Tires: Clement 25x700c
