A very nice Miyata 610 ( six ten ) we refurbished at bike boom somerville. the bike has a different triple crank then the original and also the dia comp, aero brake levers are probably not original as well.

here's the 1982 miyata catalogue . A classic touring bike, just before they were fitted with cantilever brakes.

Triple butted chromoly , lugged frame. we replaced the chaim, freewheel, tires, tubes cables, brake pads, handlebar tape, and installed brand new alloy wheels.

Sold to a harvard student.

Miyata was one of the best japanese manufacturers and fabricated their own tubings. They also put the best parts in comparison to other manufacturers like fuji, univega, etc., even on the low end bicycles.

In general, miyatas are always a good choice. we have come across many miyatas and we will add them to the blog in the future.
