SR bicycles?
Hello all. I'm new to this forum, and probably not as familiar wit bicycles as some of you My question is, did SR make bicycles I know they make cranksets, headposts, seatposts, but how about bikes I've recently acquired an SR 12 speed "racing ?" bike w/27' frame, tha probably dates to the early '80s. It has a Shimano group set I think comprised of brake calipers and levers as well as front and rea derailurs. Can anyone provide any info on an SR bike ? If it's the sam SR that eventually acquired Suntour Any and ALL info is greatly appreciated. Thank Mik -- mfinger1

My question is, did SR make bicycles? They do appear on eBay from time to time. You can probably glean some info by watching those auctions. I like their cranks.

Thanks Mike The "SR" mid price Japanese sport bikes of the seventies, built at Osaka, are an unrelated brand to SR-Sakae Ringyo Kaisha of Tokyo, the aluminum parts maker. -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org Open every day since 1 April, 1971

Angel Rodriguez and I designed them in 1987. It was sold as the SR Prizm and Suntour Litage in both road and mountain models. -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org Open every day since 1 April, 1971
