3Rensho Prototype model Katana aerodynamics racing frame / Racing /Road bike

Description: This is an original 3Rensho frame, though I'm unsure of its specific model. I encountered a similar frame years ago in a bicycle museum in Japan, where it was categorized as a prototype. Based on its characteristics, I estimate it was produced around mid-1994, during the time when Mr. Yoshi Konno was actively crafting his own designs. From my research, I believe that fewer than 10 frames of this type were made. When I acquired this frame, it was in decent condition with some rust and damaged decals. I chose to repaint and replace the decals while preserving the frame’s original essence as much as possible. Although the frame has some scratches, it remains structurally sound. I have installed a nearly new Dura Ace 7410 headset, which is not the same model that originally came with the frame, as the original headset was in poor condition. The stem is an original 3Rensho piece that I have cleaned, polished, and repainted; it measures 90mm. The seat post is also an original 3Rensho, sourced from a vintage bike shop in Japan about a decade ago. It is a limited edition piece made for a bike show in Okinawa, and I believe it complements this frame perfectly.
