1990 Miyata QuickCross Made in Japan Commuter / City Bike Introduction
Very hard to find a vintage Miyata like this let alone in this condition. Miyata decals in mint condition. Pictures don't do it justice! It's actually very bright and a much darker green. Looks totally different in real life.
I bought this bike for myself (to turn into a gravel bike) knowing that it was small for me but I just HAD to buy it. Sure enough it's too small for my purpose.
Please don't send me ridiculous offers. I am happy if it sells but just as happy to see it when I roll up the shop door every morning :)
Completely stripped down to the bare frame, cleaned, lubed, polished and put back together with some modern updates. See last pic.
_50 cm Seat tube and 53 cm top tube. Good for someone up to 5'10".
_The frame has aluminum main tubes with chromoly stays and fork. Made in Japan. Miyata was advertising Lifetime warranty at the time. It's a great quality frame. The bike weighs 23.8 Lbs.
_Converted into 1 x 7 for simple city riding. Put in a sealed bottom bracket.
_700x 32 tires, you could go 35 max.
_Araya Japanese rims, stainless spokes.
_All new cables. New brake pads, Original seat.
_Shifts and rides like butter!
_I can put the rear rack on if you need one.
When you're buying a used bike a simple "tune-up" is not enough. There could be rusted and seized parts that would make a bike absolutely useless. If such is the case, many bike shops cannot / will not work on the bike. So that great deal you got for $150.00 suddenly becomes a nightmare. This is why I strip all my bikes down to the bare frame and build them back up. So you know the bike is 100% now and totally serviceable for years to come.
Located in Richmond Hill (Bayview & Elgin Mills). Can deliver in and around the GTA.
