what a mystery. looks like from the 90 or late 80s. What gruppo does it have? That might help place the date and its quality.

Kind of hard to tell. Suntour something. 80's for sure.

The downtube decal is bogus. It's a Bridgestone 450. Looks like index shifters, so would be an 87 or 88 model. Note the neat Bridgestone self-centering brakes. Probably about the last year for those.

The seat tube decal may include some fine Engrish aspirational or inspirational prose or haiku. Report back what you find there. Some of them were ROFL good IIRC.

Ah, gotcha. Just found the catalogue. It's an '87 bridgestone 450. Now the question is, is it worth $300 lol

I think that's a bit of a stretch, but maybe if you get the right person on ebay. RB 2s seem to go for around 300. It's a pretty bike though!
