Even then, its the only one I have seen for under your $150 mark (in over six years of looking). $80 for the HS was a sweet deal as well.

And then realize if you find one outside your area, it is going to require shipping. Shipping is going to be about $100+/-, making the $150 mark unobtainium.

BBC has one for sale right now for $3500!
I know how you feel about certain Schwinn models, but how do you think something like a Miyata Ridge Runner stacks up in frame design/quality against a Cimarron? Is it even comparable?
