Hello Aron Welcome to the forums. Nice looking Premio are you buying? or looking to sell?

I need a bit more information to nail down the exact year but it looks like a '93ish bike. Is the color like a two tone bluish? I need a good pic of the color to get a better ide or info on the components. As to value... well as oyu know that can fluctuate depending on the location and condition of the bike. I think alot of guys here in general start with a 50% value then add or subtract for the above variable. That sold new for about $430 to 450 depending on the year. So if you say now it it worth $230. It looks squeaky clean and maybe little used so that might push it up to say 250, and if your in a place like SanFran or Portland or some other hot market add another 20 or 30. If your in Bangor Maine or 1000 miles from nowhere subtract 20 to 30 from the base 230.

The bad part is that id have to research on it first. Im not an expert like you :) but that premio was listed for 200. Im guessing these have high demand but I really need a bike soon. Do you have any suggestions? Ive been browing craigslist all day and I cant find anything good. (im in sfbayarea too)

sigh I might have to give in and buy a crappy new one
