Classic Japanese Bicycles is an online resource for enthusiasts seeking to identify, understand, and restore vintage Japanese bicycles, particularly models from the 1970s through the 1990s. Created by James Hickman, a former USA Cycling Expert coach, the site draws on his cycling experience and interest in Japan’s bicycle-making history.
Its content includes histories of manufacturers such as Bridgestone, Fuji, Panasonic, Miyata, Nagasawa, and 3Rensho, alongside guides to bicycle serial numbers that help readers investigate a bike’s production date, origin, and authenticity. The site also explores Japanese component makers, including Shimano, SunTour, and Tange. Articles feature vintage bicycles, technical reviews, notable builds, and restoration showcases, with examples ranging from classic road and track bikes to custom projects.
