1978 Koga Miyata Roadspeed 58cm Shimano 600

A top condition Koga Miyata road speed in the lesser-spotted Indian Red colour. A very lightweight frame made with double-butted Tange Champion steel. The frame has Shimano drop-outs, an engraved fork crown, and a drilled-out bottom bracket cluster.

The bike comes with a complete Shimano 600 groupset Arabesque groupset being the top-of-the-range component of the time. SR stem, seat post and handlebar. The components still have their lustre, and like the frame are in top condition for a bike of this age ( Eroica compliant).

Please note the crank is the Shimano 600 AX version which only fits the unique oversized AX pedals - if you would like this can be swapped for an Arabesque crankset that fits 'normal' diameter pedals.

About Koga Miyata

Koga Miyata is a famed Dutch bicycle company… that is actually a partnership with a much more famous Japanese company, Miyata Industries. Koga Miyata started with the use of Japanese components and frames in the 1970s whilst the design and assemblage of the bicycles was done in the Netherlands. Koga Miyata found major success in the IJsboerke, Capri Sonne and Tulip teams in the 1980s- 1990s.

Founded in Japan in 1890 Miyata was initially an arms company but subsequently became one the most famed bicycle brands in the world. Miyata pioneered triple butting and revolutionized frame-building techniques. So confident in the quality of their products Miyata frames are guaranteed for life.
