Can anyone ID this Miyata

On NYC CraigsList





Wondering if it's worth taking a look.
Thanks,

I saw that one too--I'm not in the area, just looking. It's gotta be a touring model with the canti brakes and those front rings, and the foam and reflector suggest lower end...a 210/212 maybe?

Could be a 610. Here's the 1985 catalog page:

I think Neal's right. Asking $350 -- what's it worth in good condition? $3.50?

I recently bought an '86 610 for $125 from Boston's CL. Paint is rough, but all the parts are there and functional. I figure it was worth twice that on eBay.

Bikes: See my sig...

Considering that Miyata bikes are among the nicest production models out there they should fetch a decent price, especially for their touring models.

I am picking up a 618GT next week...
