Subject: [CR]KOF production bikes in Japan

I posted a short piece on my blog recently about production Randonneur bikes in Japan that garnered a lot of interest. These are lugged, use downtube shifters, non-aero levers, and other neo-classic components. Perhaps they are not truly KOF bikes in the strictest sense, but I find it fascinating that they are still in production. This shows that there is still a fair sized market for the type of bike we like, though it is in Japan. Please explore the links in the post.
