Mystery Monday: John J’s Unidentified Early 80’s 10-Speed

Posted

Sorry if my posting has been a bit irregular, but I’ve been working on a couple of new “services” to offer the OTSG reading public.  I’m hoping to unveil them soon, if only I could find the time to finish them.

Monday’s OTS is this unidentified early to mid 80s fully SunTour’d OTS sent in by John J.  This is a great looking bike.  A much shorter wheelbase than we’re used to seeing around here.  It’s also nice to see a >80cm stem for a change.

Another hanging in the garage bike special. Bike has no headbadge or clear identification. It is most likely a Vitus based on all the clues I gathered from the frame of the bike. It had a very high end SunTour 10 speed Superbe groupo (Even the hubs). Bike has a very sleek clean look to it and rides incredible.

Thanks again John
