Functioning ride. Paint is scratched and a ding on the top tube. Not the orig wheels, but alloy weinmann on the back and an alloy araya on a shimano 600 hub. Has all the bells and whistles from the catalog/needs a pedal cap. Not my size/so wondering what to ask for it. Hope I'm in the appraial thread/new at this:twitchy:

Depends on the size of the ding. Nice color! I sold a really clean, original, great paint Super Sport for $250 three weeks ago. Took me a while to find a buyer, as mine had a 25 inch frame. Your local market might be better or worse. I've seen some of them go higher on ebay, but then you have all the hassle of selling on ebay, unless you are already an active bike seller.

Certainly your bike size is an easier sell. In addition, yours presents very well.

Thanks/The ding isnt big enough to cause any structual issues. Tho minus the b15 saddle the chrome is lovely. If only I could grow taller. I've ridden it (getting a nose bleed) very smooth ride! I have it on cl barter, trying (in vain it seems) to find a bike to fit me. May have to sell to get the bike I want from resident flipper. He won't trade. Of course by the time it does sell, the other will be gone. Usually the case. Thanks for the appraisal.
