View Full Version : Sugino 75? Qubeley 03-13-2004, 09:33 AM Can anyone here tell me a bit about this group? The only part I see is the track crank, but I read somewhere it was a complete road group? Any one have a catalog picture of the group? Dave Hickey 03-13-2004, 02:53 PM Can anyone here tell me a bit about this group? The only part I see is the track crank, but I read somewhere it was a complete road group? Any one have a catalog picture of the group? Isn't the 75 the carbon group? Way before carbon was popular, it had carbon brake levers and shifters. I believe the pedals were some kind of carbon composite too. I'll do some digging in the old files....... There are some pedals on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3666498293&category=7297 Qubeley 03-13-2004, 06:34 PM That's what I read, just want to see what it is like. 75 is acutally for 75 years anniversary. Here's part of that group: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3664589535&category=58099&sspagename=STRK%3AMEBWN%3AIT&rd=1 [QUOTE=Dave Hickey]Isn't the 75 the carbon group?

I picked up a set of brake levers last year on ebay, areo with all carbon levers. Going to put them on a Single Speed I have in mind to build. I have seen a few road chainrings too that had a carbon overlay onto an alloy chainring. I haven't seen the entire group. Djudd 03-15-2004, 07:22 PM from this group. They are carbon (the only carbon anything I own) and really are good looking. I bought them about three months ago (an eBay whim) and put them on a 1991 Trek 1500 I was putting together at the time. One of the mechanics at my LBS told me the components from this group are hard to find. peace Qubeley 03-15-2004, 10:11 PM Is there any way you can post a close up shot of the levers? I've never seen a pair. Thanks a lot! from this group. They are carbon (the only carbon anything I own) and really are good looking.
