My friend is selling his Miele Gara Road Issue Road Bike and I was wondering if anyone could help me determine the value of it. Also, any info about the bike year and components would be nice.

I have been riding mountain bikes for years, but don't know much about Road Bikes. A group of my friends have recently started riding in a group at night and I want to join them. Instead of buying a new entry level road bike I was thinking about getting something used and fix it up. He wants $500 for it, but that seems a little high to me.

I'm going to attempt to post some pictures of the bike.

I'm 6'2" and weigh about 200lbs [not sure if that info helps]

Looks like a fine bike. Every market is different. I think $300 is a fair offer.
