hey guys, i don't know where to look or who to ask, but i have one of these bikes sitting in my garage, i used it as an entry level bike to get me started into cycling and it has served me pretty well, but my question is what is it worth? and if i were to get a price on the bike that i found suitable for my pocket book, where would i post this for sale at?

The Super Strada was a very nice, mid range bicycle. The ones I'm familiar with were from the mid 1980s - Columbus Aelle R, Campagnolo NR derailleurs, Campagnolo Tipo hubs laced to Ambrosio Elite 19 rims, Ofmega Competition crankset, Universal 77 brakes. They look classic and deceptively expensive, courtesy of the engraved chainrings, seatpost and stem. The frames were well made, with nicely cut out lugs and engraved seat stay caps and fork crown.

The two most popular place to sell are eBay and Craigslist. They will get you the widest audience. There's also a seller's page on this forum. I wouldn't be surprised if you get a few private offers as a result of this posting. Keep an eye on your Private Message box!

The components, aesthetics and Italian heritage will all appeal to potential buyers. Price is very hard to predict without knowing the cosmetic and mechanical condition and the market where you live. Knowing the original price, I would pay $200-$250, assuming look condition (and the right size), but would not be surpised if you see higher offers due to the expensive appearance. This is the type of bicycle that you regret selling, so I would keep it, if at all possible.
