I'm looking at an older (late 80's) Nishiki Linear 12-speed bike my
neighbour had in his garage sale on the weekend. It is not the Nishiki
Linear time trial funny bike that shows up on most searches for this
make and model. It has a "Designed by Norco" sticker on it so I think
they were just recycling frame triangles or something when this bike
was made.
It is in excellent shape as he bought it for his daughter 17 years ago
and she rode it lightly for a couple years. Looks new and ran well on
a little 8 km test ride I took it on. Responsive ride and shifts
smoothly. Chromoly main tubes, Shimano derailler - LS I think and
Araya allow rims. Seems like a decent bike at a decent price CDN$75
(~US$70). Probably needs relubing and some minor adjustments but seems
sound otherwise. Any precautions or advice? Thanks.
