Vintage Vigore MTB


Spotted in the bike parking at the local mall in Nara last week, this well loved, vintage Vigore MTB...


That paint job...


And the parts, oh man the parts. For younger readers this bike would have been a near top end MTB dating from the early 1990's. For older readers, 7spd XT thumbies...


With DX mechs front and rear, bonus points for the XT Shark Fin on the chainstays...


The cranks are Sugino XP with Suntour Power Rings and Shimano XT Pedals...


Such a Kansai bike, Kyoto builder plus Shimano, Sugino, Suntour and Araya.
