T-Mar may know, if he's got the catalogs. I figure $250-$350.
Not sure what the "story" is, but original prices from then would have little, if any, bearing on value now.
This far out, it's about
:
Fit,
Frame quality and condition,
Fit,
Components quality and condition,
Fit,
Wheels and tires and disposables,
Fit,
Cost to get ready to ride (saddle, wrap, etc.)
and fit.
