Columbus Thron was Columbus' basic tubeset of the mid to late 1990s. Basically, it was the replacement for SL, though was slightly thinner. I think this frame would be worth around $200-$225 in average markets.

Around $200 was going to be my estimate. I was surprised to see the prices on sold Thron frames from ebay.

Thanks. (t-mar and ncfisherman) It went for around 120 Euros with shipping. (160 $) I hesitated buying because I couldn't find out its worth. Yeah the pictures are bad - It's what the seller put on ebay. Another reason I hesitated.
Do you guys think that this bike is something easily found in the US? I'm living in France for the next year and want to bring over some stuff to sell in the US. Stuff not necessarily found so easily in the US.
Any suggestions on European (especially French) stuff that we can't get easily in the US? (sorry for poor use of alliteration there)
