Dia Compe
What model is my early era Sekine Bicycle?
I definitely know that it was made in Japan before 1973, but I am having trouble pinning down what model it is. It is an olive green color and has all the original parts. It has Suntour V rear derailleurs and Suntour Spirt (not spirit) front derailleurs. It is also equipped with Weinmann Dia Compe brakes. I have not seen any of these derailleurs or brakes listed on any of the sites I have looked at listing the parts used on the different models. I am absolutely certain that these are the original parts as the bike has been in my family since it was purchased in the late 60's or early 70's. The bike also has chrome rims and some chrome detailing. I was thinking that it is either a SHC or SHT model but I am not sure.
