This is Reade W’s one-owner 1978 Azuki Gran Sport. Reade sent this in over the summer and is looking for an interested collector.

Reade, When you say, “I’m not riding it…”, do you really mean, “I’ve never ridden it…”?

Hi,      

‘Found your site while doing some research on my old ten speed today.  The bike is a 1978 AZUKI Gran Sport 21″ that I bought new in the Spring of ’78.  I’m not riding it and would like to see it go to a collector instead of winding up as a bent wheel locked to a bike rack at some Community College.  

I hope you like the pictures.

Here’s a one-owner 1974 Crescent 10-speed, and it’s for sale.
Crescent orange, all original, beauty. Comment if interested, and I’ll put you in contact with her.

I have a  Crescent from 1974, bought in Waco, Texas. I would like to sell it if there is interest. I am now living in Kansas City. I have owned it for all of its 36 years and have taken good care of it.

Thanks Mary
