1981 Shimano Super Aero

1981 Shimano Super Aero

Talking about this bicycle its a 1981 production bicycle.It's my bicycle that was given to me by my uncle Roshan when he was living to UK.It was was his bicycle since form 3,he purchased the bicycle in Alor Setar.When first I received the bicycle it was in a poor state.About 3 years it was lying in my house,I have always wanted to do up the bicycle but at that time I was to young and could not afford to.But then in the beginning of 2012 I started to do up the 30 years old junk that was what my father mentioned to me ''junk'' .But I said that I could do it up and I did it up at last.30 years of junk became one of the oldest and best Racing Bicycle in Malaysia.I could figure it out that this is the only Bicycle existing in Malaysia right now.Since it was a expensive bicycle those days not many people bought it.So now its a piece of history to me.I attend to keep the bicycle for ever with me.Thanks for reading my story don't think this is the only bicycle,lots to come.This project has given me inspiration to do more bicycles in the future.That's reason I started this page.
