Hello all,
I own a 1991 alumicross. on the underside of the down tube there is a single braze-on, the catalogue describes it as a Air Bottom Basement. Does anybody have any idea what that is?
Thanks,
Jake
Hi Jake:
Sorry I do not know what is Air Bottom Basement, probably is Bottom Bracket(sometimes the translation from Japanese to English is not quite clear).
Regards,
Hernan
Jake,
The air bottle basement is a single threaded mount on the underside of the down tube. It is the same size and threading as a water bottle braze-on.
It was designed to mount a bracket to hold a CO2 cartridge. Hence - air bottle basement.
I have a '92 - 916 and have been looking for the bracket to hold the CO2 cartridge.

Thank you so much for this post. long back(95). I owned an Elevation 100 when i was in school & i was very fond of it. Had bought it from a student that had come here for studies. Since Miyata is not available in India i dint know what model the bike was of. Now, I do, Thanks to you.
hi, i´m going to ride my first miyata next week. it´s still not ready to roll. unfortunately i didn´t found the bike here. what range of years did they produce? are there bikes not listed here?
Nice work!!! it´s fun to search ...
