Hi All,
I have a 1983 (plus or minus 1 year) Benotto track bike. I am the original owner and I bought it just before the 1984 Olympics. I don't have any photos of it right now (may have some to post later) but I am wondering if it has much vintage value.
There are no decals on the frame (never were) indicating what kind of tubeset they used but I am pretty sure that the frame was made in Mexico. It has what used to be a chrome fork.
So any ideas of its value? I have a new Bianchi Pista Concept frame coming and I am trying to figure out if I should put the Benotto on ebay or if it is valuable enough to keep.
TIA.
