Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

1990 Schwinn World Sport Price?

I'm looking for a cheap entry level road bike for commuting and possibly my first triathlon. There's this Schwinn World Sport. I looked the models up and I think its a 1990. He's asking $160. Anybody know what a good price is for this bike?

The link to the bike is below:

https://raleigh.craigslist.org/bid/3891210321.html

Need to make a decision by the end of the day. Help me out if you've got the knowledge.

I wouldnt pay more than a hundred bucks for one,,I have paid as low as 25 bucks for one,,prices seem to be soaring. What is going on with prices on these kind of bikes is this,,someone has one in the garage been sitting for decades he puts it on craigslist for 50 bucks a flipper rushes out buys it,,wipes it down with a rag ,puts it right back on craigslist the next day for 160. So be fast lol and try to find one on craigslist,,and look at garage sales also

I'd get a new GMC Denali before I paid $160 for that.
