1991 Schwinn Paramount Series 90 PDG. One of my best friends had one like this in college and I always lusted after it. Paid a little too much but I had to have it. Completely original right down to the tires. Suntour XC Pro shifters, derailures, crank, peddles, and hubs. It should clean up real nice.

Can't remember if I've actually posted this or not. 1993 Scott Comp Racing - 7 spd Deore LX components. Pretty much all original except tires.
Photo is from the turn around point on my ride this afternoon.

Scott M-16 Vantage
Rescued this baby from the dump recycle ctr. for $10!!
Overhauled, new rubber ect. I'm in for about $75 total.
Rides real nice but honestly not quite my cup of tea so I'll probably flip it.
Anyone have a clue what this is worth?

Hmm, what's it got? STX-RC derailers? Sram SRT600 shifters? Not very good at fork ID, is that a Quadra? Aluminum frame and the worst saddle in the world.
Maybe $80-120 around here.

Shifters and derailers are Shimano.
Thinking I'll slap $200 on it and see what happens.

Regardless of what you get for it - it looks nice.

Bianchi Ibex
Although I have it listed on Craigslist, I'm going to keep it. When I bought it, the bike was covered in dust and looked a mess. After an extensive cleaning and tune-up, a wonderful bike emerged. Although the color scheme is no to my liking, the bike is mechanically song and rides smoothly. The Sontour drive train works surprisingly well. For old technology, it's great stuff. For $30, I couldn't do much better.

Shifters look like Sram Gripshift to me. Probably SRT 600 or SRT 800. 8-speed, right?
Derailers do look to be Shimano and the Rear Derailer looks the right color and shape to be part of the STX-RC group.
Who knows, it might go for $200 if there's a Scott fanatic cruising your CL. Seems like it would usually take at least an LX-equipped bike to bring that kinda dough, though.

Looks like a mag21 fork or some other lesser variant. Mag21 was top of the line in early 90's. Decent and light fork that is very tuneable, just flexible and not much travel by todays standards.

Beautiful bike... model designation is simply 7000 and the "ZX" stands for zero excess.

It's the N+1 factor - just have to sell the benefits a little more.Completely agree - especially the more I look at the photos
Picked up a red Sawtooth awhile back at the local college surplus sale - it was included in a lot of other junk bikes for my $18 winning bid. I have the frame listed but if it doesn't sell i may build it back up and see how it runs. It's got some seriously long chainstays.

If it's a Mag 21 that might generate some interest. If it's a Quadra 10 or whatever, then meh.

I have a Mag21 on one of my bikes. Not much travel is right. It nearly bottoms out when I stand up on the pedals, and the slightest bump while doing so has it hitting the stops.,,,,BD
