For Sale: Koga Miyata Gents Lux S

Koga Miyata Gents Lux S

I started to collect for the Eroica, but now I have the Merckx I've got to have a clear out. Second up is a Koga Miyata Gents Lux S made from Miyata Champion tubing. I think this comes in just below the Pro range level I think that its about 1980/81. Picked it up in Holland when I bought a carbon 29er from a shop in Huizen/Blaricum and said I was looking for an Eroica bike. It didn't have wheels, saddle or toeclips, which I've sourced to complete the bike.
Its in a fantastic orange with some minor scratches but is really presentable and doesn't require any particular attention. The tyres are OK and it rides very well. Taken it to France a couple of times and it is a great handling bike. As good as the Merckx, but the great God didn't ride one of these when I was a kid in short pants so its this that has to go unfortunately.

Here's the spec:

• Seat tube 57cm c/c
  
• Top tube 55cm c/c
  
• Shimano Dura Ace front, rear and gear levers, 10speed
  
• Shimano Dura Ace Ex double chainset with the low slung pedals so it gives an extra 1cm on the leg length. Very large and smooth pedals
  
• Shimano Dura Ace brakes and levers with good rubbers
  
• SR Royal bars
  
• SR Royal 11.5cm stem
  
• Brooks Pro saddle. Unmarked and but not quite in keeping so I'll knock £50 off if you don't want it!
  
• Shimano hubs with Mavic MA2 rims. Sound and smooth
  
  

A really special looking bike with interesting and great condition equipment.
I'm in Milton Keynes and you're welcome to come and look. Can bring to London as I'm about a couple of days a week otherwise post at cost.
Looking for £350. PM and cash please.
