- 200 - 300ish? 300 ish kinda being top dollar

There is still a lot of miles left in those bikes and the components look current enough that with a little dressing up , cleaning and fixing, -- would be perfectly suitable for club rides, local races and centuries .

That said -- sometimes if the components are beat, you have to be careful you are not just buying a frame with a lot of scrap metal surrounding it --- a completely blown out 7 or 8 speed groupset with a stretched chain and hooked teeth on sprockets and chainrings would still cost a pretty penny to aquire, plus new cables and tires --- All that can easilly add up to $200 or more and needs to be factored into the purchase when evaluating a bike

-- In the pics the bikes look good to go with a little bit of inspection and some TLC though
