'84 Somec "Air" in excellent condition
I have a potential purchase on the subject bike in my size Columbus SPX, with full SR and Modolo Master Pro brakes. It is in excellent condition. Any ideas on a reasonable cap for pricing?
I've had difficulty linking the photo sources and will try to get some pics.
Based on my awareness of similar quality bicycles, I'd imagine that $800-$1000 would be considered a reasonable price range.
Thoughts?

That sounds about right. Somec's earn bonus points for the schmancy pantographed parts, for which they were justly famous.

I'm somewhat passively/ casually looking for one myself.
Not for me, but for a good friend.
Wants to relive his youth or some similar nonsense.
I think they are very nice bikes, and a $800 price tag with those components would be fine.
By the way, does it fit you?
