Boris, are you aware of 'Currys' history?

No? You mean as in Currys the elecrtrical people?

Yes, they started as a bike company in the 1800s and sold bikes up to the 1960s when the other bits + pieces they sold had finally completely taken over.

This bike kinda looks like a Kia? I found it at the Indiana state fair back in Aug 09. Check it out what do you think?

I have a small frame KIA "The Cat" Mens road bike. Looks cheaply built. Probably Late 70's early 80's. Got it throw in with a couple of bikes I bought awhile back. Can put up a pic if anyone is interested.

So, it's an '82 KIA Bike.

My next door neighbor has an old tan Kia 10 speed in near mint condition. Typical inexpensive diamond frame 10 speed, I have the identical bike as a partially stripped corpse in my barn. I think the bottom brackets are an odd size that makes them difficult to find bearings for.
At any rate they are okay for riding if in good shape.
