I posted this in the main forum, but I like to get opinions on value here as well.
I picked this Olmo up last night...I'm guessing this one is a circa 1989 model, as it has a gold 50th anniversary sticker on the top of the downtube (1939-1989). No model name on the frame anywhere.
It features a lugged frame - Oria tubing
Shimano 105 crank
Shimano 600 hubs, front and rear brakes, front and rear derailleur (14 speed - SIS/Friction shifting)
Wolber GTA 2 Gentleman 700c rims
Wellgo pedals
Pave saddle
Soxte (? - the script is difficult to read) headset
Overall, the bike is in nice shape, some minor scratches here and there, but nothing serious....I'm looking forward to cleaning it up and taking it for a ride, (but, embarassingly, I don't have the correct pump fitting to fill the tires.)
Any ballpark thoughts on value would be appreciated!
