From: Taking a tip from Siu Blue Wind, I too am typing a lengthy passage of text down here to demonstrate the enormous amount of space available should one wish to use it-- in sharp contrast to the avatar text above this part.

Bikes: '06 Salsa Campeon, '84 Cannondale R1000, 80's Nishiki Ariel

To figure out the value, you'd many to get specifics as to what components are on the bicycle and take into account the local market conditions. However, to give you a ballpark idea, the touring models of this period originally sold for about $1000-$2000 CDN.

Of consequence only in the sense that the very early models were welded differently and somewhat prone to cracking.
