Need some guidance
I currently have a '92 Serotta Colorado II that I built up with Campy Athena and Mavic Open Pro wheels. I am finding this bike a bit too"temperamental" for the riding I enjoy. So I am looking at finding something more relaxed.
My question is what would be a fair price to ask for this bike?
Since we have so much snow right now and I can't ride I thought I would plan!!
Thanks!!

Do you have some good photos? Condition is very important.

The maximum tire that will fit,with the Campy brakes, is 25mm. It is the original fork. The size is 61CM. I am starting to look for something moe along the geometry of a randoneering frame. Maybe a Rivendell.
