I could use some help determining the value on this Stallion. REI’s current offerings (Co-Op Cycles) for a tourer range from $1200-$1600 and IMO aren’t nearly the level of the bulletproof 2007 Novara Randonee.

Talk about REI’s Novara doin you a “Solid”! How do you put a value on this??? It’s basically NOS and IMO a better quality bike. I greatly appreciate any thoughts on this. My guess (I’m a loose cannon retro moddin gotta ride all of them bike lovin’ neophyte) says $900 all day every day. How am I doing?
Thank you all kind people!

P.S. I’ll get you a pic of the extra spokes clipped on the chainstay in the morning.
Purchased and stored. Nipples still on original tires. L.A. to NYC.....piece of cake for this stud.
