Want A Real Keirin NJS Bike? Here's a Kiyo Miyazawa For You


Blogging about stuff on Ebay is bit boring but this is so perfect that I just need to post it here. 

I wrote about Ocean bikes already but this would be so much better: a complete all NJS Kiyo Miyazawa Keirin bike. Everything, every part, and even the size is (no, would be) perfect (FOR ME!). Lovely. Aaaaaahhhh!

Kiyo Miyazawa Keirin Professional Pista. Serial number 97107. 

NOS custom professional keirin cycle built by Kiyo Miyazawa. Built for Japanese keirin professional. Not raced or ridden. Tires unglued. Flawless condition. Will pass keirin race certification. ALL components are NJS stamped and certified (see specifications).

About the builder:

Kiyo Miyazawa is one of the most highly revered of the Japanese keirin framebuilders. He learned much of his craft studying under Rossin and other Italiam framebuilders, and employs many Italianesque details in his frame designs, including lugs (similar to early Colnago), frame geometry, and finish. His current waiting list is in excess of two years for a custom built, fully equipped keirin cycle.

way too small for me and I'm way too poor... but I do love those frames (having long been Rossin-crazy).
