I've had two of those, great bikes. The BL (Blue Line) black model is OK, I used a black Blue Line GT when I ran an alpine crank and it worked fine. Not as nice as the Cyclone or Cyclone Mark-II, certainly cheaper.,,I guess people don't like the "modern" aesthetic. And, my NOS Mark-II was well over $100..not worth it.
Nice paint, I wouldn't mind having a red one, I'd sexy it up with white tape and saddle, some sweet Ultremos. The dork disc, pump peg and mommie waterbottle would come off quickly, but each to their own. I also like old Shimano Exage lever spring brake sets for my Miyatas, but that's also a personal preference.
