Every now and again, I get the opportunity to buy and original owner bike that was ridden less than a 5 times since new, and stored away untouched since the 1980s. This is the story with this particular bike. A 100% original bike. I always like to add new tires and bar tape to my bikes, but this one was just too original. I kept the vintage tires and tape in tact, and simply cleaned the years of dust off of this bike. 1986 Miele Elite - S 9.000 with full SunTour Sprint components. Has really nice lug work and Columbus SL tubing. ️ This in my top 3 favorite Mieles that I have ever owned. The peachy pearly paint is fantastic!!
