That's a very nice looking bike. Personally I would get the post fixed and KEEP it!! That bike is sweet. Your never going to get what you think it's worth due to the size mainly. So I would keep it, save up the money and buy a touring bike. You can find touring bikes used for cheaper then used racing bikes because the demand is lower. So just browse E-Bay and Craigslist for a good used touring bike.

By the way I picked up a 84 Schwinn Le Tour Luxe in original mint condition for only $130! I have an 07 Mercian Vincitore for touring, but that bike looks so nice I decided to buy a used touring bike for touring and save the Mercian...weird huh?

Or you could buy one of these brand new for not a lot of jack: http://www.bikyle.com/RockyMtnRd.asp I think these are the best touring bikes for the money anywhere...but that's just my opinion of course.
