Only drawback that I see here to yours is that the rings aren't bolted on, but built into the crankset - I've never been fond of these type cranksets.

That's true, I was mainly noticing the cranks. Plus he'd have to replace the rear derailleur anyway.
At first I figured it had Rapidfire shifters (*push* *push*), but now that I look at the picture more closely, I can only see one lever on the backside of the handlebars. Yet I don't recall Shimano's lower end having Rapidfire Plus until 1993. Maybe someone else can see better than me.
