Part 65: Katakura Silk Sporting bicycle in 1986
This is the catalog for Katakura Silk sporting bicycle in 1986.
You might notice a different variation in the lineup.
Track-racer and Camping model disappeared from the catalog and Triathlon model had appeared.
We can feel atmosphere of those days.

The model was named Strada. However, this was a newer model of traditional R2 road-racer. It was equipped with the group-set of 14-speed Suntour Sprint. |
This is Criterium (RA-L). It was equipped with Shimano 600 EX group-set. The bicycle industry had entered in the index ere. However, Criterium was still 12 speeds model. |
This is a road-racing model RB-SL which was equipped with middle graded parts. I think its conception was the fitness rather than the competition. |
This is a road-racing model RBO for beginners.
