Yeah, that 560 is a far cry from original as well. Looks like the shifters, wheelset, and stem came with it. Crankset is older, brake levers older, bars too. Dual pivot rear brake and a single in the front...thats nutted and not recessed as they would have been. It's a frankenbike (or a coop bike...), which is too bad. $340 is overpriced by about $80-100ish given the condition and non-originality. It's ok to be non-original, of course, but when it's poorly done, that's when it hurts the bike's value. I have the next year's nearly-identical 560 model (teal, but with True Temper RC-1 tubing) and have built it up with Dura-Ace. That thing moves and climbs really well. Riding it today!
