I feel so un-informed. Why is this such a special, collectible bike ? No, I'm not trying to stir things up, I really want to know. It looks like a nice enough bike but is there something special about Uragos that my untrained eye is missing ?

I know some people do not agree with this note, but here goes. The description cannot be truthful. The brakes were first made in 1961, so either they have been switched or teh bike is newer than described. The same goes for the pedals whihc are either 60's or 70's. The same goes for the dust caps of the cranks. The bike is still very interesting and deserves a good home: it is collectible rather than being a high collectible.
