It's a 1X5. Strange that this high up a bike would go sans the front derailleur.
I believe a single chainring was an option, you can see the shifter clamp is made for only a right shifter. They even had clamps for left only. I've always wanted a racing bike from that era and they never come up for sale around here, especially in that condition. It's the one in Raleigh. I don't know if $500 is a fair price but I think it probably is. Wouldn't take much to get this bike nice and shiny. Hard to tell what size it is. Does it look like a 56 or so?
