1974 Sekine

Sekine bicycles were only built in Canada for a short period between 1973 and 1981, but had been made in Japan since 1912. Built in an indigenous training centre in Rivers, Manitoba, they became a fixture in many prairie Junior High Schools. If you weren't riding a Sekine, you weren't a rider.
