This bike is $800 at Bikes Direct ... LeTour Legacy .... http://www.bikesdirect.com/products/..._legacy_xi.htm

Ok, it's about twice as much...but check the specs. It's pretty sweet. It would be sweeter, however, if it had a triple. High used bike prices are good for sellers, not so much for buyers. I have a few friends who have asked me to keep a look out for certain types of bikes for them. I follow CL here in NY, and the bikes are overpriced and keep getting reposted because they aren't selling.
IMHO, the '80s was a golden age for high quality bikes at affordable prices. Luckily, enough were made that you can find them at bargain prices if you are patient, keep your eyes open ... and carry cash with you... and keep a bike carrier in your trunk at all times.
