Found a battaglin
I found a battaglin bike from and old guy that said it was in his basement for a couple of years and it was his son's who passed away. He needed some money and was selling it, so I bought it. It's yellow with red wording. Shimano brakes with built in shifters. I wanted to know what model it is and how much its worth. It's does have the flag on the top tube, but no battaglin wording on the rear fork.

In my area that'd be about a $300 bike if you wanted to sell it reasonably quickly. Maybe $400 if you were willing to sit on it for a while.

I sold mine about 3 months ago for $400. It had a complete Shimano 600 group. Yours appears to be a little newer and in a more desirable size.

RD and STI shifters look like tri-color 600 to me, but the crankset doesn't appear to match - maybe 105 or even RX-100??
Moving up to STI around here is a major jump in price. I would say at least $300 for this bike in my area.
