844.0. "MIYATA 1200" by UJEST::WOODY () Wed Aug 31 1988 14:04

    
    
    I am currently in search of a new bike for next years Triathlon
    season and was offered a deal on the Miyata 1200.  Guess I'm just
    looking for some input from people who may have had experiences
    with the Miyata.  I currently am riding a Fuji Tivoli.  Not a bad
    bike but it's time to get a little more serious.  Listed are some
    of the components and features of the Miyata.
    
    FRAME	Spline, triple-butted chromoly tubes
    HEAD SET	Shimano Sante Sealed
    DERAILLEURS	Shimano Sante SIS
    FREEWHEEL	Shimano Sante 7 speed cassette
    PEDALS	Shimano 600 Ultegra
    RIMS	Wolber Alpina 
    BRAKE SET	Shimano Sante
    HUBS 	Shimano Sante
    
    Sorry if any of the terminology is wrong.
    
    Price for the bike would be about $725

I have a friend who is also selling that bike, but it is Suntour equipped
    mostly, with a Campy bottom bracket. It is four seasons old, and
    she used it in triathlons. She really liked the bike. Check on how
    good the deal is though; she is selling hers for $275. It is a decent
    frame- they had the frame alone for sale at Belmont Wheel Works.
