I'm trying to get a set of decals for an '83 Specialized expedition. I've gone through the previous posts dealing with decals and tried (without success) to...
I am looking for a set for my 1983 as well. Last year I swapped several emails with a Michael Swantak who is at Velographics. He sent me a sample but later...
I tried, but the person(s) who volunteered to take my rough art work to translate it into a finished product did not get back to me. I gave up and decided to...
JR Anderson ("JR Restore") just sent this about the decals he has done for the Expedition. He asked me to forward this to the list. I've uploaded the decal ...
This is great. Thanks everyone, I've contacted JR. Miyataspectour comes through. Now I have to decide whether to stick with the original Slate Metallic Gray...
Reinhart: I'm new to the forum & am replying before I look around. I have a Miyata 1000, been hanging from the ceiling for years. I was just rootingaroulnd and...
Welcome John...I've only been on this forum for a couple of months myself, but so far forum members have been very helpful. Specs were posted by a couple of...
Bought one in excellent condition. I am 52 years old and haven't ridden in years due to being busy with work and raising a family. Hopefully I can get myself...
I have never posted here, but for a quick RIP for Sheldon Brown, but I always enjoy the lively discussions about the two (or three) most beautiful bikes ever...
I have and use the Surly (black) on my Expedition, Nitto on both my Miyata Ridge Runner SE and Centurion Pro Tour, Blackburn on my Miyata 610 and Tubus Cargo...
I have used a Blackburn Expedition on the rear of my Specialized Expedition for about 15 years and have had absolutely no problems. I agree with Cougyoti that...
I have an old "85" ST500 C'dale with Blackburn low r and a new Soma DoubleCross with a Minoura front with a platform, I've ridden both enough that for my $,...
Just for the record, the newer Blackburn rear racks are either painted or anodized. They look fine but the pannier attachments will have their way with the...
My BB racks are both black and yes the finish will scratch and chip but surprisingly not that easily. I usually touch mine up with a Testors flat black paint...
The specialized expedition came with a generator and light that had wires threaded through the tubes. Are there any generators and lights like this on the...
I have a repainted and restored Miyata 1000 that I now ride regularly. Unfortunately, it has one nagging problem - the headbadge was so worn that all the paint...
You could probably fill the cracks and chips on your original headbadge with something, perhaps auto body filler. It would be fairly easy to clean up any extra...
The generator that the Expedition and Miyata 1000 were set up for, as I recall, mounted under the bottom bracket and pressed on the rolling surface of the...
I saw a Specialized Sequoia this week that is for sale near by and is also on craigslist. It had the wiring threaded through the down tube and used the rear...
Hi, I have a mystery Miyata that we've had for several years and are finally getting around to restoring, and I'm trying to figure out what model it...
Hi all, I have decided to sell my 1990 Miyata 1000LT. It is in very good condition with very minimal blemishes. Most of the decals are in perfect condition....
I have an older Miyata 310 10 speed, an '81, I think. There are some bottle attachments on the down tube that aren't soldered or brazed on. They seem to be...
I received a few gentle reminders that I neglected to include a few *minor* details. 57cm seat tube c-to-t 57cm top tube c-to-c Ritchey Tom Slick 700x30 tires...
perhaps if he had upgraded the derailers, gearing & shifters it may sell at "close" to that price. looks like the seller wants to get the money back that he...
I have been lusting after an 80's Specialized Expedition for some time now as I have plans to do a coast to coast tour after I graduate from college in '09. By...
Garrett - If your Expedition is a 54cm, please email me some photos and let me know what you are asking for it if you are considering selling it. Like you,...
