Summary:
When author Bill McGann opened his bike shop in 1974, his stock of bicycles, parts, and accessories were all made in Europe. At the same time, the nearby sporting goods store sold Schwinn bicycles that were made in Chicago. But across town was a busy shop owned by a gentleman named "Chuck". It was stocked with all the famous imported lightweights; among them Peugeot, Motobecane and Raleigh. But his top-selling brand was a bike McGann was barely familiar with, Nishiki, made in Japan. Chuck had populated the town with hundreds and hundreds, possibly thousands of bright orange Nishiki Olympic bikes, Nishiki's basic consumer ten-speed. Chuck said his Nishikis were not only a terrific value and well-made, they were equipped with wonderfully reliable, cutting-edge derailleurs.
