Bridgestone RB-1

1992 with OEM parts


1991 RB1 Synergy 

Made of Ishiwata 022E tubing. These 2 framesets are almost identical except for the rear brake cable routing. The '91 Synergy has 3 cable guides that are offset to the left of the top tube while the '92 one has 2 guides that split the housing in two at the top of the top tube.

My White Bicycle = 1 bottle ride





























Finally, I got to ride my white buy see kel.

My White Bicycle by Nazareth

My white bicycle, My white bicycle

Riding all around the street
Four o'clock and they're all asleep
I'm not tired and it's so late
Moving fast everything looks great.
My white bicycle, My white bicycle
See that man, he's all alone
Looks so happy but he's far from home
Ring my bell, smile at him
Better kick over his garbage bin

My white bicycle, My white bicycle
The rain comes down but I don't care
The wind is blowing in my hair
Seagulls flying in the air
My white bicycle, My white bicycle
Lead:
Policeman shouts but I don't see him
They're one thing I don't believe in
To find some charge but it's not leavin'
Lift both hands, his head in disgrace
Shines no light upon my face
Through the darkness, we still speed
My white bicycle and me
My white bicycle, My white bicycle
