^^^^^^ Cute, nice shape, and one of the coolest-named bikes in the history of the industry. But it's still a bike-boomer with a hi-ten frame, stamped dropouts, cottered cranks with 3-point steel riveted chainrings, steel rims, etc. Seller is probably unaware that ratchet shifters are not "index". One of these came up on our CL for about half that price recently.

I saw this one and i get the impression that the columbus decals are add-ons that dont belong.

Been watching this one for a while, it's finally been lowered in price close to market value.

24" 1971 Schwinn Super Sport frame. $45.
https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/...791808328.html

Also, a surprisingly good deal on a modern 3 speed with lugs!
Wilshire Nirve.
https://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/...809044190.html

I would include their pictures, but I'm having issues with this site again.

Well I'm no real Trek expert, nor a big picture fan, but they are good bikes with lots of fans. Glad this one came your way.

Miyata 310 for $150
Terrible photos. Rd and cranks are Dura Ace and FD is Golden Arrow but can't see the brakes (levers or brakes) but shifters look like Suntour Symmetric.

per ad;
"1983 Miyata three ten in size 23". Ready to ride. Comes with upgraded dura ace components."

Nice looking Randonneurer! I wonder if he really added those racks if they are the factory racks.
