1976 Marco Polo, Shimano 600 equipped. Frame looks to be in very good shape, and I believe it is a Reynolds 531. Seat/chain stays and fork are likely another material, anybody know what? What would you think the weight of this bike is? Might there be a '76 Puch catalog online? Lastly, of course, what would be a reasonable price range for this bike?
THANKS!
THANKS!

Wow, great condition. I'm thinking 26-27 pounds. If it were mine I would want around $225.

That's what I figured, and that's about what it's listed for. I really like the color, and condition, of the frame. Might be tough to go look at, though, with ice, snow, and now sub-zero temps blanketing our area!

Thats not a PUCH...
those decals are avail from ebay,
PUCH never had the cable guides like that on the TT.
the fork does not match either...
I think its a Dawes...

I think the fork's original too. Here's a same year Brigadier - https://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...Puch-Brigadier
I think $225 is a good price. I have the '77 catalog and sold a '77 Marco Polo earlier this year for $225, but it looks like a completely different bike.
