Really cool Mixte made in Japan. 1976 Azuki Gran Sport. 53cm frame. 10-speed. Shimano 600. all Aluminum parts, steel rims. may need a new chain, or clean up/oil this one.
40.00

Good deal??? Looks clean!
Stay away from that one. You don't want steel rims. The tires are old. The rear deailleur is shot (no spring tension). Front brakes have no pads and levers aren't good. Maybe the frame is OK, if you're willing to completely rebuild it. But don't buy it thinking that you can ride it as is. A tune up won't help this thing.
