About this product
This 1984 Shogun Touring Road Bike is an X-Small 48cm lugged butted chromoly steel commuter, featuring 27-inch wheels and 21 speeds (3x7 gears). It comes in yellow with drop handlebars, clincher tires, and cantilever brakes. The bike is equipped with bar-end shifters, an adjustable seat, and a kickstand. Weighing 40 lbs, it's a vintage road bike designed for unisex adult riders, originating from Japan, suitable for touring and commuting.
Our take
This 1984 Shogun Touring Road Bike offers a solid vintage ride for someone appreciative of classic steel frames. The lugged butted chromoly steel provides a comfortable and durable platform, well-suited for touring and commuting. With 21 speeds and cantilever brakes, it offers decent gearing and stopping power for its time. Bar-end shifters are a nice touch for a touring bike, keeping the cockpit clean. However, at 40 lbs, it's quite heavy, which could be a factor on climbs or when carrying the bike. The 27-inch wheels are also a less common size today, potentially making tire replacement a bit trickier.
