While we're on the subject of Univegas, here's a tourer on eBay: http://tinyurl.com/ynkkll It looks very much like a 600-series Miyata, Notice: -the color -the...
Just wanted to give a thanks to protour15 (I couldn't figure out your real name, sorry) for posting the pdf of the '84 Miyata catalog. I was hoping to get...
You're welcome Tim. I found that catalog on an obscure page somewhere. I am new to the forum and am currently building up a 1984 Centurion Pro Tour 15 that I...

Hello, Does anybody know what the name of the spacers are that attach to the rear dropouts to stop the wheel from sliding too far back? The URL of the 610...

I should add that you might try your Local Bike Store to find dropout adjusters--these are exactly the sort of thing you find in those old wooden drawers. . . ...
Hello, I am a "newbie" here. I really was just looking around and decided to join,just to see what was going on? I had always admired the Miyata line of...
... The ProTour is another really nice bike of that era. And it was quite possible that it was built by Miyata, as there was no "Centurion factory"... they...
Well, I am so excited to find you all. I owned a Specialized Expedition in 1983 that was stolen from me in March of 1986 in Frederick, MD. My dad had swapped...
Hi everybody, I'm a new member with a similar story to the recent poster. I bought a Miyata 1000 with my first Christmas bonus from my first real job, in...
Hmmm, I'm thinking maybe it was 23" - it was so long ago! Yup, if you go to google.com and type in "57 cm in inches" it makes the calculation, that equals...
Alexandra - Welcome to the group! I would guess you are looking for a 23" or 57-58cm. Lucky for you, that's a relatively common size. On the other hand,...

There must be some little applet that could search Craigslist automatically. I thought about trying to get Mac's Automator, or AppleScript to do it, but I'm...

Hello All, I'm a newbie too, though almost exclusively a roadie. I do have an interest in vintage bicycles, however (I get to ride a 1985 Pinarello Montello)....
Hello again. I foolishly neglected to include size info. I believe Miyata called this a 21" frame. My measurements are 53 cm c-to-c seat tube, and 53.5 cm...
