Looks to be a great bike in pristine condition… But he does want to absolute top dollar for it… If it fits perfectly and you love it; buy it. If it's not a total home run for you, I would not give more than 250 for it.

Any idea of the year, and/or do you have the catalogue you think this bike is listed in?
Without going back through catalogues, I can tell you that it is either 1986 or 1987. It has Shimano New 600EX which was upgraded to SIS in 1986 and then replaced by Shimano 600 Ultegra in 1988.

I got him down to $300. I'm in Philly, which is a pretty competitive bike market. Thinking hard...

Arni Nashbar is now retired down in Florida... his signature can be found on the chain stays of many of the models. They offered great prices on mid to highline equimpment. I stumbled into cycling after knee surgery in 1984... and just haven't quite stumbled back out as of yet. You almost can't go wrong buying old Nashbar bikes or accessories. I've retired my old Nashbar road bikes... in fact, I've given most of them away. Still, now and again one wanders into my garage for refitment.... Just sold a couple of trail bikes... 5000DTX.. just good solid rides! I often wonder if Arni follows any of our posts.

Normally restarting long-dormant threads is not recommended practice at BF, but it's good to hear Mr. Nashbar is enjoying his retirement after taking all my money providing affordable cycling parts for decades. Tomorrow I'm planning to ride my Nashbar Flashback cruiser on El Tour de Tucson, and on Thanksgiving I'm planning to ride my Raleigh Pro with its Nashbar brand brakes and hubs, and wheels I built from Nashbar-purchased parts.
