Subject: [CR]My Most collectable Japanese bike??

I remember seeing a CItoh in Daulkempers. It was a discount house in Erie, PA I was riding a huffy with a welded frame and shimano parts. I saw that silver beauty with hertofor never heard of Suntour parts and a disk for a rear brake.

I would comfort myself by looking at my bank book grow as I shoveled sidewalks, mowed grass and cleaned gutters.(I hate heights) till that late summer of 1977 when Dad drove me to Pittsburgh Pa to pick up my Serotta club series frame. I didn't get my drivers lisence untill I was 20.

To my utter surprise and amazement he kicked in for a TA triple crank to go on it. I couldn't get him to spring for the CItoh a few years before, but now he sprung for the TA Crank which actually cost him more.

27 years later I see wisdom.
