Ah. What a day for sublime juxtaposition ...

1. The great cut-off debate (I go with 1985 btw, just because I find it easier to remember dates as multiples of "5" ...some kind of odd dyslexia, perhaps ...not that I actually dis-remember that far into the future, y'unnerstans) 2. The question asking if anyone had ever heard of 26x1 3/8's tyres (I resemble that remark)

...on that latter note - albeit remotely - earlier today I posted this link to the iBOB list, and thought I'd cross-post to CR out of simple curiosity about Hara (and as I'm having one of THOSE kind of days), and it certainly *appears* to be on topic:

HARA Touring Road Bike (Vintage) Japanese Item # 3611739488 http://ebay.com/<blah>

...just because I thought it was a pretty, classic ride of the Herse-Singer French randonneuring mold ...does anyone recall anything about Hara bicycles? A quick google got me nuthin' (easy, that is).
