@Lorenzo: visto che diagonale che ti ho preso? Pensavo ai tuoi commenti finché stavo scattando questa, giuro! ;)
pink flannel flowers only bloom a year after fires if there has been rain. 7-elements Nitto Kogaku S KOMINAR f1.9 4.8cm
Nitto Terra Grappler all-terrain tyre, designed for use on 4x4s and SUVs. Four such tyres will set you back $1,500.

There's something seriously wrong with this lens. It's possible that one of the lens elements was put in the wrong way after cleaning, or it might be affected by separation. Anyway - I thought it looked interesting regardless.
Shot with a Nitto Kogaku "S-Kominar 7.5 cm F 3.5" (enlarging) lens on a Canon EOS R5.
Added NItto North Road bar with VO stem and Busch & Muller's Lumotec generator light modified with Schmidt toggle switch. Not much change in hand position as new stem is shorter, but rise of the North Road is not as high as the VO Tourist. I think this combination looks nicer.
My new (to me) Rivendell Atlantis! It's a 58cm frame with 700c wheels.

Additional Info: This sofubi Gamera toy was released by Nitto Kawada in 1978. In 1978 Nitto collaborated with Kawada Toys. All the 1978 Gamera and kaiju related releases are referred to as Nitto Kawada versus just being referring as Nitto. The manufacturing was done by Nitto and the sales release by Kawada. The company collaboration was a direct result to compete against the growing popularity of Popy kaiju toy lines.
In Japanese online searches and books, you will see this figure sometimes listed as being released by Nitto Science. Nitto Science is the actual full company name. Many collectors just refer to it as Nitto, Nitto gangu, or Nitto toys. "Gangu" is just Japanese for the word "toys".

Sits horizontal and the tombstone is parallel with the head tube. Only the slightest adjustment of the rack legs was required and everything bolts up without any stress bending. Allows a good fender line with the single thick leather washer provided. I went with a larger tire-to-fender gap for gravel riding. These fenders are actually 700c fenders with the arc radius reworked for these tires.
Headlight is forward of rack and shouldn't have any tire shadow issues.
New Sugino cranks, Nitto stem and drops. I think I'm basically done. Maybe just a lower geared black chain ring, maybe Nitto post, then that's it.... I'm done... I swear!
