Given the brake cables and the friction shifting I'd say the bike is at least 15 years old unless the first owner built a retro bike like Rivendell does.

531 frames ride great and hold value. Looks like an earlier Athena or Chorus crank. Like Marty said the ST stuff is solid. It'll work good for a long time. I was a fan of SunTour back in the friction days.

I can't add more to what Marty said about price. Looks like a very nice vintage or retro styled bike. It has a quality frame a good drivetrain and should last forever. What does the seller want for it?
