This Nishiki Cresta GT is a Kawamura built bike, meaning it was expertly crafted in Japan as opposed to other models that were made in Taiwan by Giant during the same period. The serial number indicates it was built in 1985 and for the US market. This bike retailed for $535! It was the top of the line touring bike offered by Nishiki in 1985. It has mounts for 3 bottle cages, mounts on the fork for a front rack and on the rear triangle for a rear rack. One of the more fun and unique features is the Suntour XC Sport rear derailleur which has 3 pulley wheels! It's also in excellent condition. It has new bar tape, tires, and shift cables. Everything else is how you would have seen it in 85'. There are just a few small chips in the paint but no big marks, scrapes, dents, or cracks. Please see all photos to get a better understanding as to the condition this bike is in! It's a time capsule that is ready to ride!
