View Full Version : So, what's this worth?

10 years ago I saw an ad for a used road bike. Went and checked it out and immediately gave the guy the $125 he was asking.

The bike appears to be early to mid-70s. Reynolds 501 frame and a fully Campy C-Record grupo. I completely tore the grupo apart and repacked it.

What is the grupo worth alone? The frame?

Thanks.

Did you try to post a picture, cause it would help to see what it looks like, man.

No pic. It's currently in storage.

Wasn't 501 the cro-mo version of 531?. Or maybe a heavier version?

Anyway, depending on the condition of the bike and the bits, it could be anywhere from $50 to $500. Without a picture, anyone that gives a value is just whistling dixie.
