Concorde id help.....The sickness is getting worse.

So what model and year is this Concorde guys? I have no idea since I have yet to see any catalogs showing this particular bike. It came equipped with a Miche Groupo, but the rear dérailleur was upgraded to a SHimano light action and it has Shimano 600 brake levers. The tubing decal is attached and any info on that would be great also. It's too small for me but it just looks really cool with the the chrome rear triangle and chrome fork. Yet, I will be selling this baby due to it being too small(57 center to top) and because I'm keeping the Merckx I got a fews days back. What would a good starting bid be for it and should I sell the frame set separate and the components? Thanks for your help.

kind of flashy looking, but since it is Falck tubing and Miche gruppo, I'd say it's a "budget" model. Interesting in that that's a rare Falck label, only seen it once before and clearly it's a carbon-manganese composition, lightweight, but maybe straight-gauge. I don't think there's much demand for Miche parts (except for their modern Pista stuff), I'd keep it intact...maybe $250(?)

Thanks! $250 would be great since I only payed.......well, lets say it was way less than that. Since I can't post it on CL should I just put a starting bid of $50? I'm thinking this bike will most likely be used for a fixie conversion since the last bike that I sold saw the same fate. That was the reason for me asking if I should sell the frame and fork separate from the components. Thanks Unworthy.

remember, it's "location, location, etc." as to what the market will bear. I'm located in the super-over-heated SF Bay Area where even gaspipe cr*p can fetch $100 on CL

I think GR's in a buyer's market, but not necessarily the uber-hot seller's market of the Bay area.

Which reminds me, I need to work on the Woodrup!

Not in Germany, but in beautiful sunny Belgium . I'm going to first figure out what the shipping would be from my zip to the east and west coasts. Then, I will put it on the bay and see what happens. I think selling the the frameset would be best in order to keep the shipping down and not deter some folks from bidding.
