Mike L.’s Unidentified Old 10-Speed

Posted

Every couple of months I receive a debadged OTS like Mike L.’s below. Clearly no jalopy, but completely striped of any distinguishing marks.  Any guesses?

Red Unidentified Late 70s 10-Speed

SunTour Stem-Mounted ShiftersSunTour V-GT Luxe Rear Derailer

Found at the Goodwill for $12.99. No markings on the frame itself except for the serial number which starts “Y78-” followed by 7 digits.

Suntour V-GT Luxe rear derailleur, SL front derailleur and Power Shift shifters, SR Apex-5 cranks, Sugino bottom bracket.

Thanks Mike

    Thanks to a post about another mystery bike over on bikeforums.net I’ve found out that it’s a Sekai. I haven’t been able to pinpoint a model though; I think it might be somewhat of a franken-bike.

    Looks like a late 70’s Schwinn traveler to me. My boyfriend has a 1977 Schwinn traveler that looks just like it.
